What would happen if much carbon dioxide in the air is not used by plants in food making?

When there is too much carbon dioxide collecting in the air and the plants do not use it up, it may grow to toxic proportions. The content of oxygen will reduce in proportion to the amount of carbon dioxide.

What is inorganic form of carbon which plants use in making food?
Carbon dioxide is the inorganic form of carbon which plants use for making food.
What is carbon dioxide hydrogen and oxygen used for in leaves?
food making and plants breathe carbon dioxide
What is the gas carbon dioxide used for?
For making sugar in plants.
What is the inorganic form of carbon which plants use making food?
the inorganic form of carbon is carbon dioxide
What is the inorganic form of carbon which plants use in making food?
the inorganic form of carbon is carbon dioxide
Where does the carbon come from that plants use to produce carbon dioxide?
The carbon in plants come from the carbon found in carbon dioxide (CO2). As plants undergo photosynthesis they draw in water through their roots and carbon dioxide from the air through specialized structures called stomates. So the inorganic carbon in carbon dioxide becomes organic carbon making up the oils, carbohydrates and proteins found in plants.
Once carbon has been converted to food by plants what three things can happen to it?
1. Plants respire and carbon dioxide is. released at night. 2. Plants are eaten by animals and animals respire and carbon dioxide is released. 3. Plants and animals die and are decomposed. Decomposers release carbon dioxide from decaying matter into the air.
How does plants get the carbon dioxide?
Plants get carbon dioxide from the air we exhale. We breath out carbon dioxide and plants give us oxygen. So when we breath oxygen the air that we exhale is carbon dioxide that goes to plants.
If you woke up tomorrow and all the plants on earth were gone what would happen to the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.?
we would all die because of all the carbon dioxide in the air and no plants and trees to take in the carbon dioxide to make oxygen
What happen to the plant if you continue to increase the Carbon Dioxide?
the plants die because they don't in-hail oxygen and they need carbon dioxide for the process of photosynthesis
What do plants breath in carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide?
Carbon Dioxide is used by plants for photosynthesis
What would happen to a leaf without carbon dioxide?
Just like human live on oxygen, plants live on carbon dioxide. In absence of carbon-dioxide they will die because they will be unable to create chlorophyll.
