Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The oxygen that is produced during photosynthesis is released through the stomata present in the leaf. Transpiration process also occurs through these pores present in the leaves.
Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon dioxide and oxygen cannot pass through the cuticle, but move in and out of leaves through openings called stomata (stoma = “hole"). Guard cells control the opening and closing of stomata. When stomata are open to allow gases to cross the leaf surface, the plant loses water vapor to the atmosphere.
