  • Let's talk about trees

    After a deep, random discussion with a friend, I'm left wondering where Oxygen comes out from the tree. Does it come out of the branches? Does it come out of the roots? Does it come out of the core? Does it come out of the leaves?

    Anyone here a scientist?

    No trees were harmed in the making of this website.

      It comes from leaves:

      The bottom of a leaf has a bunch of these microscopic holes called "stoma"



      These holes suck in carbon dioxide (CO2), and the leaf removes the carbon and releases the oxygen(O2).

          Now you could take this one step furter with a discussion of a paperless society which we've been waiting forever for. Well almost paperless. Of course this would put alot of companies out of business but I'm all for Schools going paperless !!!! There is no reason to have to keep lugging around a 75lb backpack.

            True but when you're managing yourself, you need to have better security on your assets, liabilities and equities. Unless someone breaks into your home to personally steal them, paper is the safest way of keeping information.

              Well, oxygen is only generated by photosynthesis. Photosynthesis only occurs in the leaves so ...

              Does it come out of the leaves? Yes.
              Does it come out of the branches? No.
              Does it come out of the roots? No.
              Does it come out of the core? No.

              At least this is always what I've been led to believe.

                Wow, this is fascinating. We must discuss more about the intriguing life of Earth's plants.
