Oxygen released comes directly from the water used as a reactant. A plant enzyme splits water into protons, electrons and oxygen, with the electrons replenishing lost electrons in pigments, protons used to maintain the electrochemical gradient, and oxygen released as waste.

What is combined with two oxygen atoms and helps plants engage in photosynthesis?
It is carbon that is combined with the oxygen in photosynthesis to make carbon dioxide (CO2).
What is oxygen released into the atmosphere by?
This process is called photosynthesis. It is done by the plants.
What element is lost to biosphere?
Oxygen is released into the biosphere by plants during photosynthesis. It is not entirely lost for the oxygen is used by humans for breathing.
Are oxygen atoms different to oxygen atoms?
well, they are the same thing unless there are now a isotope
What is oxygens source?
Oxygen comes from plants as the undergo photosynthesis. In photosynthesis they absorb water and basically split it and O2 in the water is released by the plants through the stomata. Oxygen also just exists in our atmosphere.
In Photosynthesis what gas is released?
Oxygen Is Released in Photosynthesis.
During photosynthesis water molecules are split into atoms of oxygen and what?
Since water is comprised of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, when it is split into atoms by plants during photosynthesis the only other atoms other than oxygen that are produced are hydrogen atoms.
How many oxygen atoms are needed to start photosynthesis reaction?
2 atoms
How many oxygen atoms are left after photosynthesis?
6
The type of gas that is released into the air after photosynthesis?
Plants release oxygen into the atmosphere as a by-product of photosynthesis.
What is combined with two oxygen atoms and helps plants engage in photosynthesis?
It is carbon that is combined with the oxygen in photosynthesis to make carbon dioxide (CO2).
What is the process that produces oxygen that is released into the atmosphere?
Photosynthesis
How is gas released during photosynthesis?
Oxygen is released
What photosynthesis mean gas that is released into the air as a by product of photosynthesis?
oxygen
Where does oxygen comes from?
Oxygen is chemically released through photosynthesis in green plants. The atoms of oxygen, however, were created in the cores of stars that exploded long before our Solar System began to form
What is released when plants produce photosynthesis?
OXYGEN
Which gas is released in the process of photosynthesis?
Oxygen.
