Where does the plant get the carbon to make plant structures?
For most terrestrial plants, nearly all the carbon comes from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. For aquatic plants, the carbon comes form carbon dioxide dissolved in the water.
What uses the dissolved carbon dioxide in a lake?
Autotrophs are organisms that can synthesize their own food. They will use the carbon dioxide in the process of photosynthesis.
Where does the carbon dioxide in the water come from?
They get it from the carbon dioxide dissolved in the water. This exists in four forms - carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, carbonate ion,and bicarbonate ion. Plants all use carbon dioxide, and some underwater plants can also use bicarbonate ions.
Where do plants in the ocean get carbon?
Carbon Dioxide dissolves in ocean water. Plants in the ocean use the carbon dioxide dissolved in the ocean water.
How can plants live in the ocean?
there is carbon dioxide molecules dissolved in the water and the plants take them out and use it to photosynthesize if it cannot find carbon dioxide it will find dissolved oxygen molecules and carry out respiration
Where does the carbon dioxide needed by aquatic plants come from?
It comes from the air. The CO2 in the air dissolves in the water and is then avilalbe to aquatic plants.
Do aquatic plants absorb carbon dioxide during the day or at night?
Both
How do water plants grow without carbon dioxid?
There is Carbon Dioxide dissolved in the water in which they grow.
Do aquatic plants and animals breathe in Oxygen or Carbon Dioxide?
well oxygen dissolves in the water and makes it dissolved oxygen and so they still take in regular oxygen just mixed with water
What Do aquatic plants need to go through photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide, water and light.
What types of plants live in lakes?
the plants that can survive in water , which can breath the carbon dioxide that is dissolved in the water
How does carbon dioxide enter underwater plants?
Carbon dioxide is present in water from fish respiration and the breaking down of organics such as rotting leaves. As far as how they assimilate it, it's pretty much the same as terrestrial plants. Absorbsion through their leaves, roots, etc.
