How do trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?

Trees absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere through tiny pores in their leaves called stomata. During photosynthesis, the plant takes in CO2 and sunlight, using the energy to convert CO2 and water into glucose and oxygen. This process not only helps the tree grow but also reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, playing a vital role in regulating the Earth’s climate. Trees store the carbon in their biomass, including leaves, stems, and roots, effectively acting as carbon sinks.
