Yes. It's called respiration.

It's hard to find on the internet as it's a filthy truth that tree-huggers don't want the general public to know.

Green plants give out oxygen in the day time and take carbon dioxide and during the night the green plants give out carbon dioxide and take oxygen.


Will a candle set off a carbon monoxide detector?

What is a major source of oxygen for the earth's atmosphere?

Trees and plant life.carbon dioxide is taken in by plants and regenerated into oxygen then given off again


Why do plants give out carbon dioxide in the dark and oxygen in the light and can this reduce oxygen in the bedroom at night?

Simple answer is, plants breath like any other organism, by day they give out oxygen and at night give out carbon dioxide, ie humans breath in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide


When do plants use carbon dioxide night or day?

Plants use carbon dioxide in the daytime as part of photosynthesis which occurs in the chloroplast. They use the CO2 and make sugars. People breath in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide, plants do the opposite. They breath in carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen.One small "technical" detail that should be mentioned. Plants really don't breath, they respire. People breath.So, at the night, the plant cells respire more than they photosynthesise, so they get rid of more carbon dioxide than oxygen.

Old cars give off more carbon dioxide because they do not have catalytic converters. Catalytic converters act as catalysts, converting dangerous substances such carbon monoxide into harmless compounds.


Why is carbon dioxide not good reducing agent as carbon monoxide?

The carbon atom in carbon dioxide has an oxidation state of 4+ (It's missing 4 electrons.) The carbon atom in carbon monoxide has an oxidation state of 2+ (It's only missing two electrons.) A reducing agent is something that will give electrons to another substance. Carbon dioxide has less electrons to give than carbon monoxide, making it not as good of a reducing agent.
