Atmosphere has the higher concentration of carbon dioxide. If water had a high concentration of carbon dioxide then water would be acidic because it would result the formation of carbonic acid, but water is neutral. The fact that dissolved carbon dioxide create carbonic acid is used in the manufacture of Coca-Cola. So I think it is the atmosphere.
It is the passive movement of chemicals from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
the carbon dioxide will move into the cell due to the concentration of carbon dioxide outside of the cell being higher
The concentration of gaseous pollutants is higher nearer their source than at a distance. This change in concentration is the basis for calculating the ground level concentration (glc) of pollutants when designing industrial stacks. In the case of carbon dioxide the gas originates from the industrial combustion of fuel and would be expected to be higher downwind of the source. The same logic applies to sites downwind of busy cities or roadways. The concentration eventually levels out to the approximate 380 ppm typical of the Earth's atmosphere. Interestingly there is a corresponding dip in the concentration downwind o growing crops or forests as the plants extract the carbon dioxide and replace it with oxygen.
Yes. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. If levels of it in the atmosphere are higher than normal, then they trap more heat. This is causing global warming, and the world warming is causing changes in climate.
Usually, but not necessarily. A vein is a blood vessel that is returning to the heart, so it usually has a higher concentration of CO2 than an artery. But in the case of the Pulmonary vein, it is returning to the heart from the lungs, so it has a higher concentration of oxygen than carbon dioxide.
The concentration of carbon dioxide over an industrial site might be higher, because of the emissions, however, carbon dioxide mixes well with other gases, so it will spread out all over the world.
It is the passive movement of chemicals from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
No. It depends on the concentration of carbon dioxide in the alveoli and the blood. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli is higher than the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air, so carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli diffuses out of the capillaries into the alveoli of the lungs and is exhaled.
Exhaled breath has a higher concentration of carbon dioxide than inhaled air has. This is true whether you breathe through the nose or the mouth.
When you exhale, you are not exhaling carbon dioxide. You are exhaling air with a slightly higher-than-normal concentration of carbon dioxide and a slightly lower-than-normal concentration of oxygen. Carbon dioxide extinguishes fire by forcing oxygen away from the fuel, but the air you exhale still has more than enough oxygen to support combustion.
Actually carbon dioxide concentration increases at midnight and decreases at dawn At night the concentration is higher because plants take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide at night so the concentration is higher. At dawn the concentration is lower because, plants breathe in oxygen at daytime and breathe out CO2 so the concentration is lower.
In the lungs, carbon dioxide is concentrated more in the blood. The alveoli keeps the carbon dioxide at a lower level than in the blood.
the carbon dioxide will move into the cell due to the concentration of carbon dioxide outside of the cell being higher
Soil air has a higher concentration of Carbon Dioxide; plants feed on this and convert it into Oxygen during Osmosis, which is why there is a higher concentration of Oxygen in the atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide is a relatively small molecule, and can diffuse through semi-permeable membranes easily, providing that it moves down a higher concentration gradient.
A gas exchange is the diffusion of gases from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. An example of this is when humans breath. Oxygen enters the body by means of the airway and replaces the carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide exits the body and replaces the oxygen on the outside of the body.
