Why is there oxygen in the earth's atmosphere?
The oxygen is the product of photosynthesis. Plants and algae use the energy of sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. The plants use the sugar as food and turn some into cellulose to make cell walls. Oxygen is released into the atmosphere as a byproduct.

What uses the energy in sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar?
Chloroplast.
Is it true that you get oxygen from the sun?
No. Not directly at least. We get oxygen from plants. Plants use a process called photosynthesis, which uses the energy of sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen.
Why do plants turn sunlight CO2 and water into sugar and oxygen?
Because the Sugar is the plant's food - plants make their own food by trapping the energy in Sunlight.
Do chloroplasts perform photosynthesis?
Yes. They take the sunlight's energy and use it to turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar.
What does chloropyll trap to produce what?
Chloroplasts take in water and sunlight and turn it into food for the plant, glucose sugar. The byproduct/ waste is oxygen.
Does all food turn into either sugar or fat?
No, some is separated into oxygen for your body, some becomes protein/vitamin and minerals your body needs. Some also becomes fat and sugar.
What process does plants release 430-470 billion tons of oxygen?
photosynthesis: takes in CO2 and other materials and releases oxygen and leftover materials. - - Photosynthesis is the process used by plants and other organisms to convert sunlight energy into a chemical energy, which fuels the organism. Photosynthesis uses water and carbon dioxide, which in turn creates oxygen as a waste product.
Do plants' leaves absorb carbon dioxide?
Yes. Plants carry out photosynthesis which uses the energy of sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen.
How oxygen is returned to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are absorbed by plants. A plant separates the oxygen from the carbon, uses the carbon for growth material and releases the oxygen into the atmosphere.
What makes bee's honey turn to sugar?
i has this speacail stuff that make it turn in to sugar its in there body.
