What is it that Plants and animals take in and then give off?

Plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. Animals take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide through the process of respiration. This exchange of gases is essential for the survival of both plants and animals.


What do animals and man get carbon from?

Carbon exists as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis. All food chains start with plants so herbivores get carbon by eating plants and carnivores get carbon by eating herbivores.


In the test tube shown what is produced by the snail that is used by the plant?

The snail produces carbon dioxide through respiration, which the plant uses for photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose, which the plant can use for energy.


Where do animals and people receive carbon?

Animals and people receive carbon primarily through the food they consume. Plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and convert it into carbohydrates, which are then consumed by animals. The carbon is then transferred through the food chain as animals eat plants or other animals.


How do plants give off carbon dioxide?

Plants mainly remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. They convert this (CO2) through photosynthesis into sugars. Some of these sugars are used to grow more of the plant, others are used as food. When a plant uses the sugars as food, carbon dioxide is emitted as a waste product (just like our breathing). This carbon dioxide is emitted day and night, but because they also take in CO2 during the day, most of this is a nocturnal emission (at night).

Do plants make carbon dioxide through photosynthesis?

Plants don't make carbon dioxide.


Which structure in plants are responsible for taking in carbon dioxide?

stomata


What kind of plants use the carbon dioxide produced through respiration?

All plants with chlorophyll use carbon dioxide through photosynthesis.


Are animals primary consumers of carbon dioxide?

No, animals are not primary consumers of carbon dioxide. Plants are the primary consumers of carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis. Animals, on the other hand, release carbon dioxide through respiration.


Do plants make carbon dioxide?

No, plants use carbon dioxide to go through the process of photosynthesis to make oxygen.


How do plants get carbon dioxide?

Most plants have special structures on their leaves called stomates. Carbon dioxide is drawn into the leaf tissue through these pore-like structures.


Where does the carbon come from that plants use to produce carbon dioxide?

The carbon in plants come from the carbon found in carbon dioxide (CO2). As plants undergo photosynthesis they draw in water through their roots and carbon dioxide from the air through specialized structures called stomates. So the inorganic carbon in carbon dioxide becomes organic carbon making up the oils, carbohydrates and proteins found in plants.


How does the carbon dioxide which plants need for photosynthesis get into the plants?

Through their stomata


The carbon that plants need for photosynthesis comes from?

Carbon dioxide in the air is the source of carbon that plants use for photosynthesis. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants convert carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight into glucose and oxygen. Plants absorb carbon dioxide through tiny pores in their leaves called stomata.


What is the process by which water plants get carbon dioxide for their food process?

Water plants get carbon dioxide for their food process through a process called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air through tiny pores in their leaves called stomata. This carbon dioxide is then converted into glucose and oxygen with the help of sunlight and water.


Where plants get carbon dioxide from?

from atmosphere


What do plants breath in carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide?

Plants breathe in carbon dioxide through tiny openings on their leaves called stomata. They convert carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose through the process of photosynthesis to use as energy for growth. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas that can be harmful to plants and disrupt their normal respiratory functions.
