It's only poisonous when a single oxygen atom is bonded with a single carbon atom. This makes carbon monoxide, and is poisonous to the body, because the body can't use it. We take in the natural occurring form of oxygen as 02, meaning that there are two oxygen atoms bonded together. We use this form of oxygen to carry out our life processes. When the person is exposed to carbon monoxide and oxgygen (O2), the body chooses carbon monoxide unaware that the body is unable to use it. So in conclusion, carbon monoxide is poisonous, but oxygen in the form of O2, is what we need to survive, so it's not poisonous.
What else can I help you with?
What do plants give off that animals need?
The animals need the oxygen that plants release.
How do animals usually depend on plants?
animals usually depend on plants for oxygen. we breath out carbon dioxide and breath oxygen in, same with animals. and plants breath that carbon dioxide in and and breath out oxygen.
What do plants do for animals?
Plants supply food and oxygen for animals and humans.
Which process uses oxygen in plants algae and animals?
For starters, algae are plants. Plants never use oxygen. Animals use oxygen in the process of respiration. Decomposers use oxygen in the process of respiration when decomposing plants and animals including algae.
How is life affected by the presence or absence of plants animals minerals and other resources?
animals need oxygen and plants produce oxygen. if there is no light for photosynthesis, then plants can not produce oxygen and animals cannot survive
What gas used by both plants and animals is a product of photosynthesis?
Oxygen is a product of photosynthesis that is used by plants and animals for respiration.
What is respiration carried out in?
plants and animals plants=oxygen animals=carbon dioxide
Which lived on land first plants or animals?
plants so the animals can have oxygen
What is it that plants need from animals?
Oxygen
Most plants and animals require food and oxygen to live. Plants and animals primarily use the oxygen to convert their food into?
energy
Why dont animals use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals do not use up all the oxygen in the atmosphere because plants produce oxygen. When they breathe, plants inhale carbon dioxide (which is what animals breathe out) and exhale oxygen (which is what animals breathe in).
Do plants provide animals with oxygen?
Both plants and animals use oxygen in their body chemistry. Animals exhale carbon dioxide. Plants give off mostly oxygen during the daylight hours when photosynthesis occurs, but excrete carbon dioxide at night.
