Does carbon dioxide increase the greenhouse effect?

Yes. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. When we increase its atmospheric concentration, as we do by burning fossil fuels, it causes an enhanced greenhouse effect, leading to global warming.


What happens when concentration of carbon dioxide is increased?

When concentration of carbon dioxide increases, global warming increases. This causes ozone depletion.


Which gas causes an increase in the temperature in the stratosphere?

The answer is carbon dioxide! :)


Do the ozone hole increase carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Indirectly yes. It causes global warming, which increases carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.


What is one of the worst causes of global warming?

The worst cause of global warming is burning coal which increases carbon dioxide concentration in the air which in turn results in an increase in water vapor.


Hypercapnia causes minute ventilation to?

increase as the minute ventilation is the amount of carbon dioxide


What causes carbon dioxide?

fossil fuels and breathing causes carbon dioxide :)


Why are you forced to resume breathing?

In the absence of oxygen, the build up of carbon dioxide causes and increase in the hydrogen ion concentration of the blood. It is this increase in hydrogen ions that triggers what is basically a pain response, forcing the urge to breath. It may be interesting to also note that some medications increase hydrogen ion concentration, and thereby tend to increase rates of respiration.


How can carbon dioxide be a distruction to ozone layer?

Carbon dioxide causes global warming. It then causes ozone depletion.


Does hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen increase or decrease with exercise?

It decreases due to the increase in carbon dioxide in the blood. This causes more oxygen to be uploaded to the tissues


How does the carbon cycle keep the amount of carbon dioxide constant in the atmosphere?

In pre-industrial times, the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2)that animals breathe out was matched by the amount absorbed by plants, so that the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide remained remarkably stable in the range of 260 to 280 parts per million (ppm) over a very long period. Adding additional carbon dioxide by burning fossil fuels, overwhelms the carbon cycle and causes the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide to rise beyond this range. Deforestation can break the carbon cycle, first by removing a store of carbon which will be released as additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and in some cases by reducing the ability of nature to absorb carbon dioxide from the air.


How is carbon dioxide an acidic oxide?

when carbon dioxide react with water it causes carbonic acid.
