Perhaps! (It depends on which tamarind tree you mean.)

All trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow. This carbon is used to build the roots, trunk and branches, and more than 50% of a tree is carbon.

Fast growing trees take in more carbon dioxide than others.

There are several different kinds of trees round the world called 'tamarind'. One tamarind tree (Albizia summons) has a wide canopy and thick leaves coupled with an extensive network of roots that can absorb water with a maximum. Research conducted by Dr. Ir. Endes N. Dahlan, Lecturer at the Faculty of Forestry, Bogor Agricultural University, suggests that this tamarind tree removes more carbon dioxide than some other trees.

Another tamarind or tantan, the botanical name for which is Leucaena, is claimed to be the fasting growing tree in the world, reaching its full height of 15-20 feet in about three to four years.

The tamarind tree of Asia, famous for its aromatic seeds and paste, is not one of the fast growing trees.

Why tamarind trees gives out more carbon dioxide instead oxygen?

Tamarind trees, like all plants, release oxygen during the day through a process called photosynthesis. However, during the night, they undergo respiration, where they take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide. This is why it may seem like tamarind trees give off more carbon dioxide than oxygen overall.


Why does cutting down trees increase carbon dioxide?

Trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide.


Do trees need other trees for oxygen?

Trees do not consume oxygen. They consume carbon dioxide, and give off oxygen.


What happens to carbon in rotting trees?

When trees rot, the carbon stored in the wood is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide through the process of decomposition. This carbon dioxide can then be taken up by other trees or plants through photosynthesis, completing the carbon cycle.


How could cutting down trees lead to the build up of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. When trees are cut down and not replaced, this carbon dioxide is no longer absorbed, leading to an increase in its levels in the atmosphere. Additionally, when trees are burnt or decompose, the stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.


What get rids of carbon dioxide?

trees absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen


What are two ways that deforestation adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere?

Rotting trees add carbon dioxide (and sometimes methane) to the atmosphere.Burning trees releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.


If we cut down tropical rain forest will it produce carbon dioxide?

No it won 't. Carbon dioxide is from the trees. If people cut down trees we won't have carbon dioxide.


From what molecule do trees get their carbon?

Trees get their carbon from carbon dioxide in the air through the process of photosynthesis.


What consumes the most atmospheric carbon dioxide?

Trees and other growing vegetation remove the most carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.


Do trees need carbon dioxide?

Trees do contain carbon. Trees take in carbon and convert it to carbon dioxide which is then released into the air as oxygen.


Would you tired if you sleep under a tree because of its carbon dioxide at night?

Trees don't produce carbon dioxide; living things do, such as us humans. They breathe carbon dioxide. In other words, carbon dioxide is to them like oxygen is to us.
