Is carbon dioxide useful and why?

yes. plants breath in carbon dioxide and then breath out oxygen for other living creatures. then we breath in that oxygen and breath out more carbon dioxide for the plants. basically, we could not survive without plants.


How does the heart get oxygen from the blood?

The heart gets the oxygen from the red blood cells that "trade" CO2 for oxygen in the lungs and travels back up to the heart and gives the heart a bit of the oxygen and then gives the rest of the oxygen to the other organs (like the alveoli and the liver and the gut ect)


How does the carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle balance?

Carbon-dioxide and oxygen is balanced in nature by plants, animals, and other organism(but mostly plants and animals).In the day we know plants inhale carbon-dioxide and us humans and animals exhale carbon-dioxide.So plants take in CO2(carbon-dioxide). Then the plants give out O2(oxygen) and we inhale it. In the night there is no sunlight for photosynthesis. So the plants take in O2(so do humans). So in the morning the carbon-dioxide exhaled by plants and animals at night are taken in by plants and given out by us.I think plants absorb a vast amount of CO2 for photosynthesis so that's why the balance of oxygen and carbon-dioxide remains the same in Nature.


Do humans need nitrogen and oxygen to live?

Humans (and most, and if, not all other organisms) need nitrogen is to produce protein. Oxygen is used up in respiration to help produce energy used by the human (and other organisms, but not plants) body.


How do you get o2?

Oxygen can be gathered by several means. One of which is the electrolysis of water in an inverted tube. As oxygen is split from the water, it will fill the tube and displace the water. You then have collected oxygen. Industrial processes usually use stages of filtering in order to get pure oxygen using various filter material (some that absorb other gases as well). Do a search on bottling processes for gas companies and you will probably find some processes used.

Why are algae important for fish that do not eat algae?

Algae, like all other plants, provides oxygen. All living things, including fish, need oxygen to survive. In the process of photosynthesis, the plant takes in carbon dioxide and gives off oxygen. Algae and all other plants are vital to the well being of the water ecosystem.

Do plants produce food when there is no oxygen?

Plants need oxygen so they will not grow if there is no oxygen. So if we travel to Mars or the moon, we will have to have to bring oxygen for our greenhouses. Plants improve air quality so we need plants when we visit other worlds.


Are animals important to plants?

Animals get most of their energy and nutrition from plants. Animals either eat the plants, or eat animals that ate the plants. Also, it gives animals a place to live. Such as Spiders, ants, moles, and other animals. Plants also provide animals oxygen.


What gives more oxygen trees or plants?

According to NASA, the best oxygen producing plants are snake plant, peace lily, golden pothos, and red-edges dracaena.


What is the waste product for plants of photosynthesis?

Oxygen is an important by-product (not waste) of photosynthesis and is needed by not only animals and other organisms, but also the plants which make it.
