Best Answer

Any green plant (containing Chlorophyll) in the presence of light will take in CO2 and give off O2 (oxygen) since photosynthesis is the process by which plants fix carbon from CO2 to produce sugars (polysaccharides etc.). In doing so plants feed the world and produce oxygen even underwater.

How do water plants release oxygen and take in carbon dioxide?

They take away the oxygen and take in take in the carbon dioxide


What do plants release during cell respiration?

plants 'breathe' in carbon dioxide and 'breathe' out oxygen


How do plants take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide + water + sunlight => photosynthesis => glucose + Oxygen


How does carbon enter plants from the atmosphere?

As carbon dioxide. Plants convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water to glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen in the chemical process of photosynthesis.


Which two gases are needed by water plants?

Plants combine carbon dioxide and water to make what?

Sugar and oxygen.


What is the importace of air to the plants?

The plants use carbon dioxide in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water, releasing oxygen as a waste product.


Why can scientists get energy from plants?

because there's water and oxygen and carbon dioxide in them.


What is produced by plants during respiration?

Respiration by plants is the same as that of animals, and is indeed a reverse of the equation for photosynthesis: Photosynthesis - carbon dioxide + water ----- glucose + oxygen Respiration - glucose + oxygen ----- carbon dioxide + water (+ energy, obviously)


How does carbon doxide help the plant?

Plants use carbon dioxide to convert into oxygen. Carbon dioxide (and water and sunlight) is needed for photosynthesis which is the process plants use to survive.


Do plants' leaves absorb carbon dioxide?

Yes. Plants carry out photosynthesis which uses the energy of sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen.
