What is the carbon source used in photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide. In the light-independant reaction of photosynthesis (Calvin cycle) the enzyme RuBisCo catalyzes the carboxylation of RuBP with carbon dioxide, and catalyzes the primary chemcal reaction in which carbon permanently enters the biosphere.
You breathe out a gas called what?
we breathe out a gas called carbon dioxide
Why you need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis-jokes?
The atmosphere didn't literally need the Carbon Dioxide! The main purpose of the Carbon Dioxide is for the plants! Plants needed Carbon Dioxide for their process called photosynthesis to produce their own food and in return they exchange it into Oxygen but for me personally the Carbon Dioxide in our atmosphere is also there to maintain the balance in it.
Where do trees get carbon dioxide?
Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air through photosynthesis. They remove and store the carbon and release the oxygen back into the atmosphere. A forest of trees is thus called a carbon sink.
Microbes that prefer an atmosphere of carbon dioxide are called what?
capnophiles

What is the function of urease?
Hydrolysis of urea to carbon dioxide and ammonia is catalyzed by the enzyme urease.
What caused a reduction to carbon dioxide?
Poland...
What is carbon reduction?
the process of carbon reduction is called carbon reduction process
What is Photosynthesis's?
a process of reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrate
Does the reduction of carbon dioxide occur during photosynthesis?
Plants use carbon dioxide to produce oxygen, so yes
What reaction is catalysed by a catalytic converter?
Oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide. Reduction of nitrogen monoxide back to nitrogen. Oxidation of hydrocarbons to water and carbon dioxide.
1 compound that reacts with oxygen?
For example methane gas; after burning carbon dioxide and water are released.
How does H2O2 plus MnO2 causes Carbon dioxide?
It doesn't. MnO2 catalyzes the decomposition of H2O2 into water and oxygen: 2H2O2 -> 2H2O + O2.
Could carbon be called carbon dioxide?
No. Carbon dioxide contains oxygen as well as carbon.
What is the scientific term for reduction of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates in the chloroplast?
It is the Photosynthesis.CO2 reduced into glucose.
How would a drastic reduction in plant life on earth affect the atmosphere?
levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide would decrease and levels of carbon dioxide would increase.
