Plants don't exactly "trap" carbon dioxide, they diffuse carbon dioxide into their leaves through tiny holes called stomata.

No, at night plants do not photosynthesize (because they need light to do so) so they have no need for carbon dioxide. Instead, as they still need to respire, they produce carbon dioxide as a waste product from respiration.

Does plants change carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide?

No, plants do not convert carbon monoxide (CO) to carbon dioxide (CO2). Plants are able to absorb and store carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, but they do not have the ability to convert carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide is typically produced by incomplete combustion of carbon-containing fuels.


What do plants remove from the air during photosynthesis?

Plants remove carbon dioxide during photosynthesis!


When Green Plants Give Out Carbon Dioxide?

Green plants give out carbon dioxide during cellular respiration, a process where they break down glucose to release energy. This occurs primarily at night when photosynthesis is not taking place. However, overall, green plants absorb more carbon dioxide during photosynthesis than they release during respiration.


During what process do plants and other organisms take in carbon dioxide?

Green plants take in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and give out oxygen. While respiration, all living organisms take in oxygen and carbon dioxide and then give out carbon dioxide.


What organisms release carbon dioxide?

Organisms like humans, animals, and plants release carbon dioxide as a byproduct of respiration. Additionally, decomposers such as bacteria and fungi also release carbon dioxide during the decomposition process.
