Leaves are found all over the world, from the coldest places, to the hottest, even underwater. Leaves along with bountiful amounts of other parts of a plant such as the flower or flower buds, the shoot, leaf stalk, main root, stem, secondary root, root hairs are used to formulate most plants, but leaves are the powerhouse of most plants. Leaves are needed on all green plants, but not those who can 't get sunlight.
Leaves are used for photosynthesis which is a process by which sunlight is absorbed into the plant and uses chlorophyll to make food the plant can use from carbon dioxide, water, nutrients, and energy from sunlight. This process is called photosynthesis. During the process of photosynthesis, plants release oxygen into the air.
Photosynthesis leads to the creation of glucose for the plant and oxygen for non-plant biotic things such as animals and homo-sapiens. Which is great because of the respiration that comes from all biotic things.
Respiration occurs in all living cells creating energy. In homo-sapiens and animals, respiration is the intake or inhale of oxygen and disperse or release of carbon dioxide also known as CO2. Plants on the other hand, have respiration that takes in carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, making a cycle between plants and non-plant …show more content…

Dorsiventral leaves orient themselves at an angle to the main axis and perpendicular to the direction of sunlight. Most dicots have dorsi-ventral leaves that are net-veined, including most trees, bushes, garden plants and wildflowers. While Isobilateral leaves orient themselves parallel to the main axis and parallel to the direction of sunlight. Most monocots possess parallel-veined isobilateral leaves, including grasses and grasslike plants, lilies, irises, amaryllises etc. These help people determine the type of plant they are dealing
