Does photosynthesis require carbon dioxide

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

The carbon dioxide is the one that is being used and the one to be converted to oxygen.

Basically, it's because CO2 has to combine with water to make glucose for the plant.

Answer 3

Carbon dioxide is needed for photosynthesis to produce sugar that then will feed the plant. CO2 or carbon dioxide is needed in larger doses for plants and grass need a smaller amount of CO2.

Answer 4

Yes it does

Carbon dioxide is the source of carbon. This carbon is stored in glucose

Answer 5

Yes, they do. Without carbon dioxide, plants wouldn't be able to complete the transaction of photosynthesis

Answer 6

CO2 is a requirement for photosynthesis as it becomes part of the glucose molecule C6H12O6 during the dark reaction.

Answer 7

carbon dioxide is an raw material of photosynthesis, so without carbon dioxide the process of photosynthesis will not occur. hence there will not be an end product of photosynthesis.

Answer 8

Yes they are both needed for photosynthesis to occur.

Answer 9

Yes, photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide as one of the key reactants. In the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is combined with water and light energy to produce glucose and oxygen.
