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.
What the effect of activated carbon on pH?
it lowers the Ph
What are the two ways that deforestation adds to the greenhouse effect?
Forests store carbon, sequestering it from the atmosphere. Deforestation means the timber may be used and eventually converted to carbon dioxide, or left to rot, which also means that it is converted to carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. Either way, deforestation contributes to increasing carbon dioxide levels and consequently the global warming process. More detail: Deforestation is the cutting down of trees to improve the value of tracts of land by making space for farms usually. Trees are a large source of oxygen and also remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. by cutting down trees, you limit the amount of carbon dioxide being removed from the air and, usually, the trees are burnt after being cut down in a 'chop and burn' method, this releases the carbon in the tree which reacts with oxygen because of the heat and moving into the atmosphere. As of such, not only does deforestation remove sources of oxygen and carbon dioxide sinks (a 'reservoir' of CO2) it also adds excess oxygen into the atmosphere. Forests are a strong "carbon sink." Through a process called photosynthesis, forests consume carbon dioxide and, using energy from sunlight, 'eat' the carbon atom in the carbon dioxide molecule, using it to create sugars and other nutrients and releasing the leftover oxygen. While all plants do this, tall, dense forests are the most efficient in terms of how much carbon a square acre of forest can remove from the atmosphere. Deforestation -- the widespread destruction of forest -- reduces the planet's ability to remove carbon from the atmosphere. This exacerbates the problem of carbon dioxide emissions because it lowers how much carbon can be removed from the atmosphere.
What is homeostasis how does relate carbon dioxide?
As we perform cellular respiration, the byproduct carbon dioxide builds up in our blood. This is a problem, since it lowers the pH of blood, and pH is one of the factors that we must keep in homeostasis. So, as CO2 rises, blood pH falls, and breathing rate increases, allowing more CO2 to leave they body, and allowing blood pH to rise back to the pH set point.
Is rainwater natrually acidic?
Yes, rainwater is naturally slightly acidic due to the presence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide mixes with rainwater to form carbonic acid, which lowers the pH of the rainwater. However, human activities, such as emissions from burning fossil fuels, can increase the acidity of rainwater to harmful levels, leading to acid rain.
How does the process of photosynthesis affect carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere during a typical year?
Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide as a raw material where carbon dioxide is fixed into organic molecules. This process lowers the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The seasonal fluctuation of carbon dioxide levels during a year may be caused by increased photosynthesis during spring and summer.
Why an assembly line lowers cost?
Increased production
Which toxic gases in the environment lowers the resistance to pneumonia in human beings?
carbon dioxide
Will the presence of algae affect the pH of water?
I think so because carbon dioxide lowers the pH levels and algae absorbs carbon dioxide. So when the algae takes in the carbon dioxide, the pH levels should rise. -will
If a person is not exhaling carbon dioxide which then becomes carbonic acid in the blood is this raising the pH or lowering the pH?
Yes, the presence of carbon dioxide in the blood lowers pH so therefore when it is removed the pH increases. However the act of removing carbon dioxide itself does not affect pH, rather it results because of less carbon dioxide.
What is stale water?
Water can become stale if you leave it out too long. This is because carbon dioxide gets into the water and lowers the pH.
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.
What is the effect of conserving fuel in our environment?
If you conserve fuel in your environment it lowers the amount of carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere and it stops the earth getting warmer.
What does an increase in carbon dioxide in the blood cause the body to do?
Lowers the pH and makes bofy fludids more acidic
