No, it is not. Carbon monoxide is produced by the incomplete combustion of petrol in air. Petrol is octane (C8H18), containing no oxygen atoms, whereas carbon monoxide, CO, has an oxygen atom. Complete combustion of octane goes: C8H18 + 12.5(O2 +3.76N2) --> 8CO2 + 9H2O + 47N2 Petrol Air Carbon dioxide Nitrogen Water Thus in a petrol fire with plenty of oxygen, no carbon monoxide is produced. However in a car's cylinder, there is likely to be more fuel and less oxygen than in this idealised combustion situation. There will still be mostly carbon dioxide and water as combustion products, but some of the carbon will partially oxidise carbon to carbon monoxide rather than dioxide. Although CO2 is a greenhouse gas, it is a less immediately dangerous substance than CO, which sticks to your red blood cells tighter than oxygen does - so tightly, in fact, that it won't let go, and the capacity of your blood to carry much-needed oxygen to your cells. Instead of bright red oxyhaemoglobin, CO combines with blood to produce cherry-pink carboxyhaemoglobin. A sign of CO poisoning is a cherry-pink complexion.
Carbon dioxide is not in fossil fuel. Burning fossil fuels releases carbon monoxide as the result of a chemical reaction.
rvp is the best
Oxygen is given off by plants as they absorb carbon dioxide. It's like how animals breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide, except plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.
Yes they do give off methane and this is even more harmful than carbon dioxide.
When they take in the Carbon Dioxide they release Oxygen, Oxygen is also a byproduct waste of photosynthesis which plants do use.
hydro-carbon fuels
Humans breathe in whatever happens to be in the air when they breathe in. If there is carbon dioxide then they will breathe it in as well as nitrogen and oxygen. However they only use the oxygen for respiration so they breathe out everything else with extra carbon dioxide.
Monkeys give off carbon dioxide when they exhale - the same as humans do!
Carbon dioxide! We give off carbon dioxide, plants give off oxygen. Its one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
It gives off carbon dioxide which proves that it respires.
Plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen Animals take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide
It consumes carbon dioxide and lets off oxygen.
No. Animal cells use Oxygen and give off carbon dioxide as a waste product. Plant cells use carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.

No. Animal cells use Oxygen and give off carbon dioxide as a waste product. Plant cells use carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.
A plant does give off Carbon Dioxide at night when there is not enough light for photosynthesis to occur.
