"fix" carbon dioxide?

If turning CO2 into oxygen is what you meant.

They are called plants. Better go with the green ones.

They use light, CO2 and H2O as food and ends up producing O2 or oxygen.

Under arid conditions C4 plants fix carbon dioxide more efficiently than C3 plants because C4 plants?

C4 plants fix 4 carbon dioxides during glycolysis instead of the normal 3 (hence C3 plants). CAM plants fix carbon dioxide at night instead of during the day.


Why don't Carbon4 plants fix oxygen?

A C4 plants do not fix oxygen because it does not contain the enzyme RuBisCO which fixed either carbon dioxide or oxygen. A special enzyme is used which only allows the carbon dioxide to be fixed. Lets look at C3 plants. C3 plants have RuBisCO which allows them to either fix carbon dioxide or oxygen. In a dry region, the oxygen level may increase while carbon dioxide level may decrease. This means that more oxygens are fixed in a process called photorespiration. Photorespiration is completely useless as it contains no energy, but you can't stop it because there are too much oxygen with not enough carbon dioxide.


Are the reactions that fix carbon dioxide sometimes called dark reactions?

no


How would the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere change if their is no plants?

There would be significantly more CO2 in the atmosphere because plants take in CO2 during photosynthesis and fix the carbon into glucose.


How some of the carbon becomes part of the fox's body?

Plants take in carbon dioxide and fix it as plant tissue. Primary consumers eat the plants and take in the carbon which is then passed along to a secondary consumer.

What do c3 and c4 plants have in common?

C3 and C4 plants are named after the number of carbon molecules in the first products of their carbon fixation cycles. C3 plants produce 3-phosphoglycerate and C4 plants produce Oxaloacetate.


Why carbon dioxide is important for photosynthesis?

It's important to all life. Starting with plants there is a chain. Plants fix carbon dioxide into starches and sugars during photosynthesis. They use the energy of light to make CO2 and water into sugars. We animals need them to do that so that we can have food and get energy. We digest the sugars and starches produced by plants, in our gut, and that feeds our cells.


How plant is producer as well as consumer of oxygen?

Plants perform photosynthesis, where they fix carbon dioxide into sugars and release oxygen from water, and then consume these sugars using cellular respiration, releasing carbon dioxide from the sugars and taking in oxygen to create water


Why are stomsta shut at night?

Stomata are shut at night to conserve water. When there is no light, plants cannot fix carbon dioxide. Stomata are usually open to allow entrance of carbon dioxide. A side effect is that water is lost from the leaves.There is an exception to this, however. CAM plants such as cacti and succulents open the stomata at night, store carbon dioxide as acids, and close them during the day to prevent dessication from harsh desert conditions.
