do autotrophs remove carbon dioxide from the air
Carbon Dioxide
A Producer
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.
There are many technical ways in which humans can remove carbon from air ( to reduce fossil fuel emissions), but the natural way is through photosynthesis. Trees and plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen into the air. That's why we can breath; trees :)
do autotrophs remove carbon dioxide from the air
Trees remove carbon dioxide from the air releasing the oxygen and retaining the carbon as sugar and cellulose. The cellulose is used to form wood and leaves. The sugar fuels the trees cellular growth and seed formation. The carbon is stored as wood (in the tree itaelf) and in the fallen leaves as humus or carbon in the soil.
Carbon dioxide. Simple as that.
carbon dioxide
Flowers, trees and all growing vegetation remove carbon dioxide from the air using photosynthesis.
Carbon Dioxide is created when a plant (ex. tree) takes in air
Approximately 50% of a tree's dry weight is composed of carbon. This carbon is extracted from carbon dioxide in the air during photosynthesis, and is used to build the tree's structure.

Many hydroxides absorb carbon dioxide.
0.03% of the air contains carbon dioxide.
