What else can I help you with?
When people and animals breathe their cells take in oxygen from the air and release carbon dioxide which plants take in to make food?
That is correct. People and animals consume oxygen and release carbon dioxide, while plants consume carbon dioxide and release oxygen. It's a match made in heaven.
Is the fate of the carbon dioxide the same in plants and animals?
No, in plants carbon dioxide is a raw material, or reactant, for photosynthesis. Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen. For animals, is is just a waste product.
Do flowers take oxygen?
No, flowers do not take in oxygen. Like all plants, they undergo photosynthesis where they take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen, unlike animals that take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
How did the carbon cycle begin?
plants take in carbon dioxide and produce glucose animals consume plants animals break down glucose and release carbon dioxide
How do plants and animals help each other in exchange of gases in atmosphere?
During the process of photosynthesis release oxygen and animals (we) inhale oxygen and release carbondioxide. This is how plants and animals depend on each other by symbiosys. Hope that helps...
The exchange of gases between producers and consumers is called a carbon dioxide and oxygen what?
The exchange of gases between producers (plants) and consumers (animals) is called respiration. During respiration, animals take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide, while plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis.
Plants take in and release oxygen gas?
During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide and water and convert them into glucose and oxygen. The oxygen produced during photosynthesis is released into the atmosphere as a byproduct. Additionally, plants also perform respiration, where they take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide, similar to animals.
How does plants and animals use carbon dioxide and oxygen in different ways?
Plants obtain carbon from the atmosphere by breaking CO2 apart and releasing the oxygen during photosynthesis. Animals eat the plants, excrete an undigested portion of the carbon, and exhale the rest through respiration of the carbon with atmospheric oxygen (or in the case of marine animals--oxygen dissolved in water).
How do atoms move from one part of the ecosystem to another?
Animals release carbon dioxide and release oxygen, and plants release oxygen and take in carbon dioxide
How do plants and animals mantain the level of oxygen in the atmosphere?
Plants produce oxygen during photosynthesis by using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Animals, including humans, consume oxygen during respiration to produce energy and release carbon dioxide. This continuous cycle of oxygen production by plants and consumption by animals helps maintain the levels of oxygen in the atmosphere.
What happens to the carbon when plants are eaten by animals?
Cows release more carbon dioxide when they burp or release flatulence than a car does for a whole month....or something like that.
What happens in the carbon dioxide oxygen cycle?
In the carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle, plants take in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and release oxygen as a byproduct. Animals then consume this oxygen and release carbon dioxide as a waste product during respiration. This cycle maintains a balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere essential for life on Earth.
