What transpiration part of the carbon cycle?
Transpiration takes part in the carbon cycle by converting the light energy in photosynthesis through the stomata...
How is the balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide maintained?
Through photosynthesis and respiration.
Are carbon atoms incorporated into organic molecules by plants?
yes. they were also processed into sugars through photosynthesis and they are ultimately derived from carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide is changed into carbon-containing foods by the process of what?
photosynthesis
How does carbon in the atmosphere get into the biosphere?
Carbon enters the biosphere in multiple ways. Through photosynthesis, carbon dioxide gas enters a plants stomata and are used in the production of glucose sugar. In cellular respiration, carbon dioxide gas is releases from a plant into the air in order to produce ATP. When a plant is eaten by a consumer, the carbon is usually expelled from the organism through respiration, but traces of carbon will always be found in anything living as is the law of the carbon cycle, which is why we use carbon dating to tell how old something is. In addition, if something living dies, (all organic matter contains carbon) the carbon inside its body can get compressed by heat and pressure over time and the carbon solidifies into either coal or diamond, usually coal. By burning coal the carbon dioxide gas enters the atmosphere again and the cycle starts over.
How does photosynthesis cause carbon to cycle through the earth?
Are photosynthesis cause carbon to cycle through the earth.
Does carbon pass through photosynthesis?
Yes the Carbon cycle and Photosynthesis are inextricably connected.
Plants need this gas for photosynthesis?
Plants take in carbon dioxide and, through photosynthesis, produce oxygen.
During photosynthesis plants use what as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy?
The Carbon source for photosynthesis is the air
Do plants make carbon dioxide through photosynthesis?
Plants don't make carbon dioxide.
Where do plants get the carbon needed for carbohydrate production?
They obtain it from carbon dioxide in the air through photosynthesis.
Through the process of photosynthesis plants?
absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store this carbon as sugar.
How does a carbon atom travel through photosynthesis?
they travel by the air which is through the photosynthesis and they and cellular respiration
How does photosynthesis remove carbon from the atmosphere?
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light. Through photosynthesis, plants remove carbon dioxide from the air, and release oxygen for us to breathe.
How is carbon used in photosynthesis?
Carbon is used in photosynthesis as part of carbon dioxide, which is one of the reactants needed in photosynthesis. Without carbon, this process cannot occur.
Most carbon enters the web of life through what?
Carbon enters into livings systems differently, depending on the organism. With plants, carbon primarily enters as carbon dioxide during photosynthesis . In animals carbon is taken up through food.
What gas may be required for photosynthesis?
photosynthesis :)
