Where does the stuff come from that plants use to make sugar from?
Sugar (C12H22O11) is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. These carbon comes from carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air and hydrogen (H2) and oxygen O2) from water. The energy for the converssion comes from sunlight.Sugar (C12H22O11) is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

The energy for your body's activities comes?
it comes from the products of combustion of food. Food + oxygen becomes energy + Carbon dioxide
Does photosynthesis take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere?
No, Cellular Respiration returns carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere: Photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water -> Light Energy -> Sugar + Oxygen Cellular Respiration: Sugar + Oxygen -> C.R. -> Carbon Dioxide + Water
What energy is gas on stove?
The energy comes from the gas which is usually a hydrocarbon fuel. The fuel produces heat energy when it burns with oxygen in the air. The burning process releases chemical potential energy in the carbon. Carbon dioxide is produced and the carbon-oxygen chemical bonds in the carbon dioxide release heat when they are formed. Most of the carbon in the gas was originally taken from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by the action of plants. With the Sun's heat the plants separated out the carbon and oxygen, which resulted in stored energy, and that is the energy that runs the gas stove.
What fossil fuel makes global warming?
All of them because they are all hydrocarbons formed from decayed organic matter. These fuels contain carbon and oxygen that were separated by photosynthesis, using carbon dioxide as the raw material in a process which takes its energy from the Sun. When fossil fuels are burnt, the heat energy comes from the recombination of carbon and oxygen atoms to produce carbon dioxide. Additional energy comes from the recombination of hydrogen and oxygen.
What is carbon dioxide carried to the lungs as?
oxygen. You breathe out carbon dioxide and you breathe in oxygen it is all oxygen in you body its hoe it comes out
How might you use a radioactive isotope to find out whether the oxygen in carbon dioxide comes from sugar or oxygen gas?
You could use a radioactive isotope like carbon-14 to label the sugars during photosynthesis. By tracking the movement of carbon-14 in the carbon dioxide, you can determine if the oxygen in the carbon dioxide comes from sugar or oxygen gas. If the oxygen in the carbon dioxide comes from sugar, the carbon-14 label will also be seen in the oxygen.
Oxygen atoms in the oxygen gas produced by photosynthesis comes from what?
The oxygen atoms in the oxygen gas produced by photosynthesis come from water molecules that are split during the light-dependent reactions. The oxygen molecules released are a byproduct of this process.
Where do they get energy for this process?
The energy for photosynthesis comes from sunlight, which is captured by chlorophyll molecules in the chloroplasts of plants. This energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
How does a plant take in oxygen and carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide is taken in, usually during the day, through stomata (tiny pores on the underside of a leaf), and simultaneously oxygen is released. At night, if the plant is using cellular respiration for energy, oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide released.The oxygen that is released comes from the breakdown of water, because hydrogen is needed for the photosynthesis reactions.
What two gases are exchanged in your lungs when you breathe?
carbon dioxide goes out and oxygen comes in
What happens to energy when carbon and oxygen atoms combine?
When carbon and oxygen atoms combine to form carbon dioxide, energy is released. This energy comes from the bonds being formed between the atoms during the chemical reaction.
