Carbon Dioxide dissolves in ocean water. Plants in the ocean use the carbon dioxide dissolved in the ocean water.
85% biomass produced by plants in ocean.
Plants take carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and turn it into Oxygen (O).
Carbon dioxide
Trees and plant life.carbon dioxide is taken in by plants and regenerated into oxygen then given off again
the top layer of the ocean is called the Epipelagic
Plankton
Plants need carbon dioxide to preform photosynthesis.
Algae and marine plants
plants "breathe" carbon dioxide which is what animals exhale. the plant life in the ocean provides oxygen for the marine life.
there is carbon dioxide molecules dissolved in the water and the plants take them out and use it to photosynthesize if it cannot find carbon dioxide it will find dissolved oxygen molecules and carry out respiration
Phytoplankton, tiny marine plants, play a crucial role in carbon capture in the ocean through photosynthesis. They absorb carbon dioxide from the water and atmosphere, converting it into organic carbon. When phytoplankton die or are eaten by other organisms, this organic carbon sinks to the ocean floor, effectively removing carbon from the atmosphere and storing it in the deep ocean. This process helps regulate the Earth's carbon cycle and mitigate climate change.
Carbon is mostly found in the Earth's crust as carbonates, in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, and in living organisms such as plants and animals. It is also found in fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas.
Animal's role in the carbon cycle is the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen between plants. Plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, and the byproduct is oxygen that all living things need to live. Then animals breath out carbon dioxide to be in taken by plants.
Plants in the ocean produce food in the same way the plants growing on land do, through photosynthesis. The only difference is that plants growing on land get carbon dioxide from the air, water from the soil and sunlight from the sun whereas the aquatic plants obtain carbon dioxide and water from the ocean and light energy from the sun as sunlight can penetrate through the water surface.
One of Earth's largest carbon sinks is the ocean. The ocean absorbs a significant amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, storing it in marine plants, animals, and sediments. This helps regulate the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Most photosynthesis occurs in land plants. This is because there is more light available on land than in the deeper regions of the ocean where water plants are found. However, ocean plants like phytoplankton also play a significant role in global carbon fixation due to their vast numbers.
plants eat plants in the ocean.
