What prokaryotic cells that were the first to add significant quantities of oxygen to Earth's atmosphere are classified as?
Cyanobacteria
How do living things add carbon to the atmosphere?
Because of a process called respiration . this means that when humans breathe in the oxygen from the atmosphere is now travelling around our body in our red blood cells , but when we breathe out we release carbon into the atmosphere. following this the pants then take in all the carbon and release oxygen. this is called photosynthesis .
Why is the environment essential in respiration?
The environment is what you live in. Part of the environment is the atmosphere and this contains Oxygen. In respiration you breath in the atmosphere and get the Oxygen you need from it.
What do you call an organism requiring oxygen?
aerobic
Why does the organism need oxygen and nutrients?
dick
Which organism release oxygen into the atmosphere?
bird
What did cyanobacteria add to the atmosphere?
Oxygen
What organism added oxygen to your atmosphere and why?
Plants, trees, and grass put oxygen into the air.
What was the first organism to add oxygen to the earth?
Cyanobacteria, which are sometimes incorrectly called blue-green algae, were the first organisms to add oxygen to early Earth. Blue-green algae are eukaryotes while cyanobacteria are the much earlier prokaryotes.
What organism contributed the most to the shift between an oxygen-free atmosphere to an oxygenated-atmosphere?
The 'photosynthtics'
How do organism add carbon to the atmosphere?
When a organism dies and decays it emits carbon dioxide.
Does photosynthesis add oxygen to the atmosphere?
Yes, photosynthasis does add oxygen to the atmosphere becaause the organisms (plants) developed the ability to photosynthasise. By taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.
What is the process when organisms add oxygen to the atmosphere called?
photosynthesis
When plants make their own food they add what gas to the atmosphere?
Plants add oxygen to the atmosphere during photosynthesis or food making.
What element upon which most modern organism depend was missing from earth's early atmosphere?
Oxygen
What organism is given credit for helping change the gases in your atmosphere to oxygen?
Probably ancient cyanobacteria.
When plants make their own food what gas do they add to the atmosphere?
Most importantly, carbon dioxide is absorbed by plants in order to photosynthesise. The oxygen is absorbed when plants respire. The atmosphere is the source of rain for their water. Physical aspects of the atmosphere, such as strong winds, can damage plants.
