How is carbon dioxide fixed in the atmosphere?
It is not fixed in the atmosphere. It moves as part of the carbon cycle in and out of the oceans, the atmosphere and the land.
How is carbon dioxide taken out of the atmosphere besides photosynthesis?
Some carbon dioxide is absorbed by the top levels of the oceans where it is beginning to turn the oceans more acidic. That and photosynthesis are the only ways that carbon dioxide is taken out of the atmosphere. Industries that emit carbon dioxide pollution are trialling ways of trapping carbon dioxide as it goes up the chimney stacks (scrubbers).
Is The atmosphere stores much more carbon dioxide than the oceans?
False.
The oceans help provide an exchange of gases with the atmosphere by dissolving what?
Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen
How did the formation of seas and oceans change the amount of carbon dioxide?
The Earth's oceans contain a huge amount of carbon dioxide in the form of bicarbonate and carbonate ions - much more than the amount in the atmosphere.
How is carbon dioxide fixed in the atmosphere?
It is not fixed in the atmosphere. It moves as part of the carbon cycle in and out of the oceans, the atmosphere and the land.
Earth's early atmosphere was formed by gases released by oceans plants cornet impacts or volcanic eruptions?
Volcanic eruptions, they produced a lot of carbon dioxide which made up the early atmosphere.
What role does the combustion of fossil fuels have in the carbon cycle?
It increases the carbon dioxide in the oceans. It adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.

Carbon dioxide is kept at a constant level by an exchange between the atmosphere and?
The Oceans
Is The atmosphere stores much more carbon dioxide than the oceans?
False.
What gas in the atmosphere was absorbed by the oceans as they formed?
The ocean water absorbed much of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
The oceans help provide an exchange of gases with the atmosphere by dissolving what?
Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen
What processes removes carbon dioxide from the air or water?
Photosynethesis by plants helps remove carbon from the air.
How did the formation of seas and oceans change the amount of carbon dioxide?
The Earth's oceans contain a huge amount of carbon dioxide in the form of bicarbonate and carbonate ions - much more than the amount in the atmosphere.
How many times more carbon is in the oceans than in the atmosphere?
The oceans contain about 50 times more carbon dioxide (CO2) than the atmosphere and 19 times more than the land biosphere.
How does carbon and the atmosphere interact?
The carbon cycle moves carbon in and out of the atmosphere, the land, plants and animals, and the oceans. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is a greenhouse gas that keeps the planet warm. Too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, from humans adding it by burning fossil fuels, is causing an accelerated greenhouse effect, global warming.
