Answer:

Plants take CO₂ and H₂O from outside and convert it into sugar and this sugar is used by other organisms and it cycles continuously.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis has a role in the cycling of matter into

and out of organisms.

i) The cycling of matter in plants can be traced.

ii) The photosynthesis requires an energy input (sunlight) to occur. This

reaction requires, CO₂ and H₂O, and they combine to form sugar

molecules and in return, release oxygen.

iii) Sugars produced by plants can be used immediately or stored for growth or for

later use, they cycles continuously in and out of the plant

iv) They take CO₂ and H₂O from outside and convert it into sugar and this sugar is used by other organisms and it cycles continuously.
