What two sources take CO2 out of the atmosphere?

The ocean removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere as part of the carbon cycle. This carbon recycles round and returns to the atmosphere again.Trees, forests and all growing vegetation remove CO2 from the atmosphere, release the oxygen, and store the carbon. If it is a long living tree, it can store that carbon for hundreds of years.


How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis almost opposite process?

photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and cellular respiration puts it back.Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and cellular respiration puts it back.


What maintains the balance of CO2 and O2 in the atmosphere?

plants maintain balance of co2 and o2 in the atmosphere..


Has the amount of oxygen released into the atmosphere increased in recent years?

The amount of oxygen released into the atmosphere has not noticeably increased in recent years. The amount of oxygen (O2) in the atmosphere is about 21%. It is part of the earth's oxygen cycle, the main driver of which is photosynthesis. Vegetation removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, releases the oxygen (O2) and stores the carbon (C).


How does photosynthesis moderate the greenhouse effect?

As far as CO2 is involved, Photosynthesis is by far and away the Best method of carbon capture and STORAGE [within Earth's Soil] that We Possess; and this [as well as any, every and all forms of ] Removal of CO2 from Our paper thin Atmosphere is what We Desire Most.

What natural methods remove CO2 from the atmosphere?

Growing vegetation, like trees, plants and crops, removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The other natural method is the carbon cycle, which moves carbon in and out of the atmosphere, in and out of the oceans, and in and out of the land.


Can greenery help global warming?

Yes, all growing vegetation (greenery) removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, reducing Global Warming.


How can global warming remove carbon from the atmosphere?

It can't. Global warming is caused by the increasing amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and there is no way the extra heat will remove this CO2. The only thing that removes carbon permanently from the air is photosynthesis in forests, trees and other vegetation.


What is the water in photosynthesis?

The source of the electron pair that removes the oxygen from the CO2 and lets it free to the Atmosphere, and binds the hydrogen to carbon. Also known as a reducing agent.


Is there a process that removes CO2 through acid rain?

There is no process of removing CO2 through acid rain. The two issues though are related in that coal burning plants generate the items needed to increase CO2 in our atmosphere and the gases that create acid rain.

Do insects emit carbon dioxide?

Yes, like most living things, insects are part of the carbon cycle which puts CO2 into the atmosphere and removes it again in a constant cycle.
