No, we need oxygen. But after we inhale the oxygen, the exhale is mostly carbon dioxide.

An inorganic molecule reguired by green plants for the process of photosynthesis is?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the inorganic molecule required by green plants for the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is converted into glucose in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.


Does photosynthesis require carbon dioxide?

yes. like us, how we breath oxygen, plants breath carbon dioxide. so without it the photosynthesis process will not be complete. As carbon dioxide increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases. For example if we put soda lime (absorbs carbon dioxide) with the plant and cover it with a plastic bag, the plant will be lacking carbon dioxide and the rate of photosynthesis will decrease.


Gas used in the process of photosynthesis?

6 CO2 + 6H2O + energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2 so gas used is carbon dioxide and gas produced is oxygen


What compound is needed for photosynthesis?

The compound needed for photosynthesis is carbon dioxide (CO2). During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, CO2 is taken in by the plant through small openings called stomata on the leaves. This CO2 is then used in the Calvin cycle, also known as the light-independent reactions, to produce glucose and other organic compounds essential for plant growth and development.


What enters through leaf pores and required for photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide enters through leaf pores, known as stomata, and is required for photosynthesis to occur. Carbon dioxide is one of the raw materials needed by plants to produce glucose and oxygen during photosynthesis.
