What is the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere CALLED?

This is simple. It is "Plants".


How do simple plants change the Earth's atmosphere?

Simple plants use photosynthesis to remove carbon dioxide and produce oxygen in the atmosphere.They give us oxygen


Why do plants give out carbon dioxide in the dark and oxygen in the light and can this reduce oxygen in the bedroom at night?

Simple answer is, plants breath like any other organism, by day they give out oxygen and at night give out carbon dioxide, ie humans breath in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide


What is the name of the process that removes carbon dioxide from the air?

That depends on how we are doing this. The most common method is simple absorption into water. Next in line is the respiratory process of plants.


Is carbon dioxide a macro molecule?

No, as molecule go carbon dioxide is a small, simple molecule.


What type of energy do plants capture?

Most plants can use sunlight and carbon dioxide to make simple sugars. water + carbon dioxide together with chlorophyl and light make sugar and oxygen 6H2O + 6CO2 together with chlorophyl and light make C6H12O6 + 6O2


Why is photosynthesis useful?

Photosynthesis is useful in three respects.1. It is the only process that convert simple elements (carbon dioxide and water) with the aid of sunlight into glucose and Oxygen. This provides food for the plant and in turn food for animals; both of which are then eaten by people.2. People and animals benefit directly from the products of plants (without photosynthesis no plants): foods, drink, building materials, fuel, medicine.3. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of animal respiration, plants convert the Carbon dioxide back into breathable Oxygen (as a byproduct) - without plants we eventually would not be able to breath.


What is carbon dioxide produced for?

Carbon dioxide is produced because plants need CO2 to make food for them. Plants make food from water and CO2 with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll and produce O2 and sugar. CO2 is produced when food and Oxygen burns in our body and carbon dioxide is thrown out in the air by our nose. Carbon dioxide is also produced when decomposers decomposes matter of dead animals and plants into simple substances like minerals and when we burn things like paper, plastic etc.


What are two requirements for respiration?

Oxygen , carbon dioxide and a pair of lungs. Animals inhale Oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, through the lungs. Plants inhale carbon dioxide amd exhale oxygen, by photosynthesis. The carbon component of CO2 forms part of the biomass of the plant'.


What are the benefits of using carbon dioxide detectors?

Very simple: to detect carbon dioxide and to avoid accidents.


Does carbon dioxide affect photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is a processes plants use to harness the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) & water into the simple sugar glucose. The larger the amount of co2, the more oxygen will be produced.


When do plant give off oxygen?

Photosynthesis. Using the sun�s energy green plants convert carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars and oxygen. Along with carbon dioxide, plants also need water, which is gathered by the plant�s roots, to make food through the process of photosynthesis. The stomata allows oxygen to be released through this process. This oxygen is an important exchange for all living things. Plants take in the carbon dioxide and give off the oxygen that we need in order to breathe.
