Major gases of the atmosphere today are?
The major gases of the atmosphere are mainly nitrogen and oxygen. Nitrogen takes up 78.09% of the air and oxygen takes up 20.95% of the air. The rest is made up of 0.93% argon and 0.039% carbon dioxide.
How does carbon appear in the atmosphere?
Black dust (diesel exhaust).ceso Carbon particles can be suspended in the air as a fine dust that can settle on surfaces making them appear dirty. Carbon also exists in the atmosphere as clear gasecompounds such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.
Is coal a form of Solar energy?
Yes, the energy stored in coal came from the sun. Plants using an ingenious process called photosynthesis, use energy from the sun, to take carbon-dioxide from the air, use the carbon and release the oxygen back to the air. After the plant is eaten or dies and is decomposed or burned (the net effect is the same) the oxygen again breaks the chemical bonds, releasing the energy from the sun and liberating the carbon-dioxide back to the air to become the next generation of plants. Coal is carbon from the air and energy from the sun.
How do the characteristics of an air mass and its source region compare?
The characteristics of an air mass are heavily influenced by its source region. The temperature, humidity, and stability of an air mass are reflective of the conditions prevalent in its source region. For example, an air mass originating from a tropical ocean region will be warm, moist, and unstable, while an air mass from a polar continental region will be cold, dry, and stable.
If an area is described as a good air mass source region and what information can you give about it?
A good air mass source region is one in which the air remains relatively stationary and acquires uniform properties, such as temperature and moisture content. These regions are typically characterized by stable atmospheric conditions, such as over oceans or large continental landmasses, where air can be stagnant for extended periods allowing for the development of distinct air masses.
What is one major source of large scale release of carbon dioxide into the air?
Volcanic eruptions.
What is the source of the carbon in the sugars made by?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air.
What is the source of carbon is in the sugars made by plants?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air.
What is the source Of the carbon in sugars made by plants?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air.
What is the source of carbon in the sugar made by plants?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the air.
Is carbon monoxide a source of air pollution?
Yes.
Which gas is not a source of air pollution?
Carbon dioxide
What is the major source of weight gain in a growing plant?
The major source of weight gain in a growing plant is through photosynthesis. Plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, which is then used to build new plant tissues, such as leaves, stems, and roots. This process allows plants to grow and increase in weight.
Does carbon dioxide come from water?
Carbon Dioxide is the air we breathe out. :)
During photosynthesis plants use what as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy?
During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy. Carbon dioxide enters the plant through small openings on the leaves called stomata and is converted into sugars through the process of photosynthesis.
What is the source of carbon dioxide for water plants?
Carbon dioxide in the oceans primarily comes from the atmosphere. Some of the carbon dioxide from the air dissolves into the ocean water. However, smaller amounts can come from respiration of sea animals and other miscellaneous sources. The atmosphere is by far the largest source of carbon dioxide in ocean water, though.
