Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stomata are small pores present in the epidermis of leaves and stems which are primarily responsible for gas exchange, including taking in of carbon dioxide (CO2) during the process of photosynthesis. Root hairs are involved in water and mineral absorption, rhizomes are modified stems for vegetative propagation, and internodes are the regions between the nodes of a plant stem. None of these structures are directly involved in the uptake of carbon dioxide.
