Yeah buddie. And the other half is preformed by the lovely land plants that cause us to thrive. XD
Just name any 10 plants, green algae, or photosynthetic protists such as seaweed. maple tree petunia Euglena kelp rose gardenia ash tree pine tree hibiscus palm tree
Half-moon Half-Earth
Mostly due to the fact that plankton produce much of the world's oxygen.
Half of Earth is illuminated by the sun at all times.
It is not like that. Earth revolves around the sun and Earth is sphere and when suns rays fall on earth the half earth gets light but half did not get it. Since Earth rotates about its own axis slowly the half sides gets alternately as 12hours and 24 hours as a day. In one day 12hours get half Earth light and next 12 half night that is no light

Phytoplankton form the foundation for most marine life food webs. Also they are responsible for half the photosynthetic activity on earth. My source was : http://www.ehow.com/about_5414740_importance-phytoplankton.html

Yes! Half of the world's oxygen is produced by phytoplankton photosynthesis. Through photosynthesis phytoplankton absorb nutrients and energy from the sun and release a byproduct in the form of oxygen.

The rate will reduce too. it will reduce to a half.
Photosynthesis happening because of chloroplasts. it will reduce if chloroplasts are reduced.
Half of the Earth's surface is called a hemisphere.
Because the earth spins on it's axis with a sun on one side of the earth and the moon the other side of the earth and there is an imaginary line across half of the earth and which half gets on to the sun or moon side it is night and so that means the other half is day.
There is no such thing as half of the Earth. If you are referring to half of the spherical shape of the Earth then it will be a hemisphere.
Half the Earth's surface, land and sea, is a "hemisphere".
