CO2 is required to support all plant life. Plant life creates Oxygen, and most life forms cannot survive without Oxygen. Therefore there is a mutually dependent relationship between the 2. No CO2 leads to no O2, and all life on Earth dies. So, no.

If CO2 was not on earth what will earth be like?

If there was no Carbon Dioxide on Earth it would be very different then what it is now. Firstly plants need CO2 for photosynthesis, without CO2 plants could not complete photosynthesis and would die of starvation (photosynthesis is a plants way of making food). Secondly CO2 is a gas that keeps the Earth's temperature at the correct level, without CO2 the Earth would be much colder and therefor unable to support life.


How can earth have life on it but the other planets do not?

Because, Earth is at a right distance from the size of our sun which where water could exist and our atmoshpehere with many gases and not just CO2. Mars could sustain life but need to reduce the level of co2 in its atmosphere to sustain fresh, liquid water.


How earth is a living planet?

As earth supports life,we consider it as living planet,But there are many components on earth which supports life i.e water,atmosphere,temperarure......Its distance from sun provide it proper temperature that suits life....that temperature is such that liquid like water can exist & living beings can survive


Could life as you know it exist on earth if air only oxygen?

No....as you see for life not only oxygen is needed for instance we need food for that we have to depend on plants.here plants need CO2 to prepare food which they get from air....!!


Why are algae important?

No, they produce Co2 which is used for plants to breathe then the plants produce oxygen. This is wrong. Green algae produce 70 to 80% of the oxygen on earth. We would not exist without them.


Why is CO2 essential to all life on earth?

Well, for humans CO2 is bad for is because it gets more humid in the atmosphere, but however the plants need the CO2 to process it into oxygen. Which we need.


Is carbon dioxide needed in photosynthesis?

No, we need oxygen. But after we inhale the oxygen, the exhale is mostly carbon dioxide.


Why is there a natural balance of the amount of carbon dioxide and the amount of oxygen around earth?

Without carbon dioxide and water vapor, we would be a cold dead planet. Oxygen is needed for the life cycle, as is CO2. When something dies, that co2 is returned to the atmosphere through burning or decay.


Why dry ice don't melt?

Dry ice is made of raw CO2. Liquid CO2 cannot exist under earth's atmosphere. For this reason, when dry ice sublimates, it turns from solid directly to gas.


Is CO2 a good gas or bad gas?

CO2 is bad in the sense that it is toxic to animal life and is believed to be largely responsible for global warming. CO2 is good in the sense that plants can't live without it.


What do you think earth atmosphere would be like today if life had not evolved one earth?

Almost no oxygen, lots of CO2, still mostly nitrogen.


Is there any chance of life on venus?

non, because (96.5) percent of its atmosphere is made of co2
