Does food contain carbon monoxide?

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is used in the food industry, not Carbon Monoxide (CO). CO2 can be used to create the fizzy bubbles in your soda or the vegetables you eat. The thing is, most of our food contains CO2 in it. Whether consumed directly, such as plants, or indirectly, such as humans eating plants, we all eat Carbon Dioxide. Carbon Monoxide, however, is not used in foods at all.


Does carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide have a benefit?

For the applications of carbon monoxide see the link below. Carbon Dioxide is taken in by green plants and used to make Oxygen that we breathe. Carbon Dioxide is used to make 'Carbonated' beverages. Carbon Dioxide is used in many industrial applications, such as welding. Carbon Dioxide is used to make Dry Ice. Carbon Dioxide is used in Fire Extinguishers.

Who uses photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is used for food for plants Photosynthesis is used for production of organic compounds from carbon dioxide and water. These organic compounds serve as food material to plants and animals.


Is Carbon used by plants to make sugar?

Yes, carbon is used by plants to make sugar. Carbon dioxide (CO2), is taken in by plants along with water (H2O) to make sugar. First, plants through photosynthesis transform water into hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). the Hydrogen is then combined with CO2 to create C6H12O2, or other words called glucose. Glucose is a simple sugar that exists in plants. Apple trees for instance uses the glucose to make sweet apples for you! XD


What liquid do plants need for photosynthesis?

Sugars consist of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Plants produce sugar from those elements absorbed by their leaves and roots from carbon compounds and water, and with the help of chlorophyll as a catalyst.
