Vice President Constantino Chiwenga who doubles as the Minister of Health and Child Care has made a huge embarrassment of himself by failing to explain the photosynthesis process.

The former army boss claimed that humans breathe carbon while they get oxide from trees.

Through photosynthesis, leaves pull in carbon dioxide and water and use the energy of the sun to convert this into chemical compounds such as sugars that feed the tree.

As a by-product of that chemical reaction, oxygen is produced and released by the tree. Humans and other living organisms then take in that oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide which is again absorbed by trees.
