Animals and plants are dependant on one another to produce Co2 and O2. These gases are utilized I cellular respiration; however, while animals start the respiratory cycle by inhaling O2 and finish by exhaling Co2, plants execute their respiratory cycle conversely - begining by absorbing Co2, and finishing by expelling O2.
O2=oxygen CO2=carbon dioxide
Photorespiration occurs when a plant runs out of CO2 and begins adding O2 to RuBP in the Calvin cycle.
They take H2o and Co2 and then through the Calvin cycle, and the light cycle it produces PGAL. the o2 is oxidized to H2o, and the co2 is reduced to PGAL.
O2 and CO2 are gases at rtp. As all gases and liquids are fluids, O2 and CO2 are considered fluids.
The amount of CO2 in the air was decreased and levels of O2 rose because blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) used the CO2 to form carbohydrates by means of the Calvin cycle and replaced it with O2 as a product of photosynthesis
When ther is a higher concentration of O2 than CO2, rubisco can bind O2 in place of CO2.

plants maintain balance of co2 and o2 in the atmosphere..
co2 and o2
This reaction is:2 CO2 = 2 CO + O2
The decay bacteria fit in with the carbon dioxide oxygen cycle by releasing CO2 into the water. Aquatic plants then take this CO2 and use it to produce energy while releasing O2 back into the water.
