What is the name of the process by which trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen back out?
The process in trees (and other plants) which uses carbon
dioxide and makes oxygen is called photosynthesis. In
photosynthesis, plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide
and water into sugar (glucose) and oxygen. The carbon dioxide is
obtained from the atmocphere and the oxygen is released into the
atmosphere. The process of absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing
oxygen is called gas exchange (or gaseous exchange).
Molecules of carbon dioxide enter the plant, and molecules of
oxygen leave the plant, by a process...
