What processes puts carbon from a forest floor back into the atmosphere?
Combustion.
Which process or processes return carbon to the atmosphere?
Cellular respiration only
What are two processes that return CO2 to the atmosphere?
Respiration (breathing). This is carbon dioxide recently removed from the atmosphere, so does not contribute to global warming.Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This is carbon dioxide that has been underground for 300 million years, so it does contribute to global warming.
How many pounds of carbon dioxide is remove form the atmosphere annually when a tree is removed?
When a tree is removed, it can no longer remove any carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
How can carbon dioxide be removed from the earths atmosphere?
More green plants!
How is carbon extracted from atmosphere?
Carbon is removed from the atmosphere in some ways. For example, plants and trees eliminate carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. Carbon will be released into the atmosphere when an organism dies.
Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere?
yea
Why should carbon stay the same in the atmosphere?
Carbon in the atmosphere is added by processes like combustion, decomposition and losses from methane sources. It is removed by photosynthesis and, chemical reaction and dissolving in ocean water. As long as the sources exceed the sinks the carbon will stay (and increase) in the atmosphere. Human activities increase the sources and decrease the sinks.
Carbon is removed from the atmosphere and put into food through?
the carbon cycle
How can carbon be removed from the environment?
Photosynthesis by the plants, industrial processes and rainfall are some of the ways that outline how carbon can be removed from the environment.
What gas is removed from the atmosphere by plants and algae?
it removes carbon.
What removed carbon dioxide from the atmosphere acting as a carbon sink?
Other than photosynthesis, the formation of carbonates in the ocean traps carbon from the atmosphere.
What are two biological processes that transfers carbon?
The two main biological processes in the carbon cycle are photosynthesis (which absorbs carbon) and cellular respiration (which moves it back to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide).
