The oxygen molecules just get transferred to a different substance. The molecules are all still there, just in a different form. Its called the The Law on the Conservation of Matter -- matter cannot be either created or destroyed. Humans take in O2 and produce CO2, whereas plants take in CO2 and produce O2. This is why in areas where forests have been logged, there is an increase in the amount of CO2, a Greenhouse gas. There isn't necessarily less oxygen, as 20% of the atmosphere is oxygen. In conclusion; nature always balances. Its a natural equilibrium.
What else can I help you with?
Do the alveolar ducts absorb carbon dioxide?
No, alveolar ducts do not absorb carbon dioxide. Instead, the main function of alveolar ducts is to deliver oxygen from the air sacs to the bloodstream and remove carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the air sacs for exhalation.
What elements are cycled through the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are used to produce glucose and oxygen. In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are used to produce energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water. So, carbon and oxygen are elements that are cycled through both processes.
Which gases are involve in photosynthesis?
There is only one gas. It is the CO2 gas.
Word equation for BURNING Glucose?
Respiration: Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy/ATP
What materials are products of photosynthesis a oxygen and glucose b oxygen and carbon dioxide c carbon dioxide and water or d water and oxygen?
Photosynthesis takes carbon dioxide and uses sunlight to split it into carbon and oxygen, releasing the oxygen into the air, and combining the carbon with water from the ground to create glucose.
What do oxygen and carbon make?
when carbon oxidizes (mixes with oxygen) it forms carbon dioxide
What constant monitors levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood?
blood vessels
Does venus show signs of oxygen in its atmosphere?
If by Oxygen you mean pure Oxygen molecules, then no, only possible trace amounts. However, there is massive amounts of Carbon Dioxide (95% of Venus's atmosphere) which can be fairly easily be converted into oxygen.
How much oxygen and carbon dioxide is the air that we breathe out?
The air we breathe out contains about 16% oxygen and 4% carbon dioxide. The rest is mainly nitrogen and trace amounts of other gases.
Respiration and photosynthesis keep the levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the atmosphere?
fairly constant
Which atmospheric gases do photosynthesis and cellular respiration help keep constant?
Photosynthesis helps keep oxygen levels constant by converting carbon dioxide into oxygen, while cellular respiration helps keep carbon dioxide levels constant by converting oxygen into carbon dioxide. These processes are vital for maintaining the balance of atmospheric gases essential for life on Earth.
Why the concentration of carbon dioxide and oxygen remains constant in the atmosphere?
the concentration and of carbon dioxide and oxygen remains constant in the atmosphere because when human throw carbon dioxide out of their body so plants take it and when plants throw oxygen so human take it.
What gas is Mars' atmosphere composed of?
Mars' atmosphere is composed mainly of carbon dioxide (around 95.3%), with smaller amounts of nitrogen, argon, and trace amounts of oxygen and water vapor.
Is carbon dioxide oxygen?
No. Carbon dioxide is a chemical compound of carbon and oxygen.
Which is a compound oxygen helium carbon dioxide nitrogen?
Carbon dioxide is a compound consisting of carbon and oxygen.
Is carbon dioxide an element or carbon?
Carbon is an element, but not carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a compound of carbon and oxygen.
What is carbon dioxide-oxygen?
Oxygen-Carbon Dioxide Cycle- a continuous exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide by plants and animals including human
