How are plants and animals useful in maintaining the balance of CO in the atmosphere?

During the photosynthesis process plants absorb Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and emit Oxygen (O2), thus they increase the Earth's oxygen levels and trap carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is released when the plant dies and decays or it is burnt.

What is the conclusion importance of photosynthesis in maintaining a balance ecosystem?
Photosynthesis is very important in maintaining a balance in the ecosystem. Carbon dioxide is used by the plants for photosynthesis and oxygen which is used by animals is the by product of photosynthesis.
What role do plant and animal play in maintaining ecological balance write impact implication on the environment if it inbalance?
Plants and animals are fundamental to ecological balance. Plants could exist without animals but animals could not live without plants. Without animals plants would eventually stabilise to a new level of ecological equilibrium.
Animals help keep the gases in the atmosphere in balance by?
Plants and animals help to maintain a balance of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by cellular respiration and photosynthesis. Photosynthesis releases oxygen and cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide.
How much do plants and animals depend on earths atmosphere?
If there were no atmosphere, there would be no plants and animals.
What maintains the balance of CO2 and O2 in the atmosphere?
plants maintain balance of co2 and o2 in the atmosphere..
How do plants and animals maintain a balance of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The balance can be maintained through their deaths which means they have fossil fuels which get mined and combusted back into CO2 again.
How does carbon move from plants and animals into the atmosphere?
Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
In what part of the earth's atmosphere would you find plants and animals?
You would fins plants and animals in the troposphere, where we live on earth
What is it called when animals and plants return moisture to the atmosphere?
photosynthesis
Explain the carbon cycle with the help of a diagram In what way human activities have altered the balance of carbon cycle?
1.carbon is present in the form of co2 in the atmosphere. 2.It is used by green plants in the form of photosynthesis. 3.co2 is returned back to the atmosphere by the respiration of both plants and animals. 4.Death and decomposition of plants and animals also release co2 in the atmosphere. 5.Burning of fossil fuels,volcanic eruptions and action of acid rains of carbonate rocks all release co2 in the atmosphere. 6.Thus this is the exchange of the carbon in the atmosphere and nature.
What is the gas taken in by aquatic plants?
Plants are very important in maintaining balance in our ecosystem. Carbon-di-oxide is very important for All plants including the aquatic type that take in carbon-di-oxide and release oxygen in the atmosphere. Carbon-di-oxide is very important for plants where as oxygen gas is crucial for human beings.
Why dont animals use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals do not use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere because plants produce oxygen. When they breathe, plants inhale carbon dioxide (which is what animals breathe out) and exhale oxygen (which is what animals breathe in).
