What absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?
The carbon dioxide is absorbed by: 1. Chlorophyll in green plants. The chlorophyll breaks down the carbon dioxide to carbon and oxygen. The carbon is used by the plant as a nutrient and the oxygen is released to the atmosphere. 2. Oceans. The carbon dioxide absorbed and dissolved in the water. The carbon dioxide is adsorbed by green algae and water micro organisms.
