Water, carbon dioxide and oxygen can enter a cell through the plasma membrane.
Through the cell membrane.
Water splitting occurs on the side of the membrane where the oxygen electrode is placed, known as the cathode. This is where water molecules are broken down into oxygen ions and protons.
Cell membranes usually allow water, gases (such as oxygen and carbon dioxide), and small uncharged molecules to enter a cell. Larger molecules or charged ions may require specific transport proteins or channels to cross the membrane.
No, oxygen is produced during photosynthesis. When plants take in carbon dioxide and water and convert them into glucose and oxygen, the excess oxygen is released into the atmosphere as a byproduct.

Through the cell membrane.
The membrane is permeable to water but not to sugar.
The special structures in the cell membrane that allow water and sugar to pass through are called protein channels or transporters. These proteins create passageways in the membrane that are specific to water molecules or sugar molecules, facilitating their movement in and out of the cell.
Cell membranes, specifically through channels and transport proteins, regulate the passage of nutrients such as sugar, oxygen, and water into cells and the removal of waste products. This selective permeability ensures that essential substances can enter the cell while harmful substances are kept out.
Glucose.
Magic, perhaps?Water cannot be used to produce sugar and oxygen.
Oxygen crosses the cell membrane through simple diffusion, where it moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This process is driven by the concentration gradient of oxygen between the extracellular environment and the cytoplasm of the cell.
