What produes carbon dioxide?

Humans and animals produce carbon dioxide (CO2). They breath in oxygen, and in the mitochondria of cells, it creates carbon dioxide.


Is mitochondria fix co2?

No. Mitochondria does not fix carbon dioxide. It uses oxygen to produce energy for the cell.


Carbon dioxide is produced where in the cell?

Carbon dioxide is produced in the mitochondria of cells during the process of cellular respiration. Oxygen is used to break down glucose molecules, releasing energy, carbon dioxide, and water as byproducts.


Does a mitochondria absorb carbon dioxide?

Mitochondria do not absorb carbon dioxide. They are involved in producing ATP, the energy currency of the cell, through cellular respiration, a process that requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide as a byproduct. This carbon dioxide is then released from the cell into the bloodstream and eventually exhaled from the body.


In the cell which organelles has the function in using oxygen in the breakdown of glucose releasing energy and carbon Dioxide?

The mitochondria.


How are oxygen and carbon dioxide cycle on earth are related?

They are related because it is a cycle of gas which an organism need in order to survive for example: a coconut tree inhaled carbon dioxide that comes from animals, they need it in order for photosynthesis they also give off oxygen that we also need


Which organelle releases oxygen?

Chloroplasts release oxygen during the process of photosynthesis. They contain chlorophyll, which captures sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.


Where is the carbon dioxide that you exhale produced?

The human body uses oxygen in cellular respiration to create energy by oxidizing carbohydrates (mostly sugars), fats, or protein. This process produces carbon dioxide, water, and other chemical by-products. The carbon dioxide is brought through the bloodstream to the lungs, where it is exchanged for more oxygen. The lungs exhale the carbon dioxide along with some water vapor and substantial remaining oxygen.


Does mitochondria gives off oxygen?

No it utilizes oxygen.Given off gas is CO2.


How does oxygen inside a cells mitochondria produce carbon dioxide water and energy?

TChrough Kreb's cycle mitochondria produce CO2, water and energy by utilizing oxygen. This is called aerobic respiration.


Is carbon dioxide oxygen?

No. Carbon dioxide is a chemical compound of carbon and oxygen.


Where does carbon dioxide exerted by the lungs come from?

From the mitochondria ( powerhouse of cells ) in cells that produces energy from oxygen inhaled and relieves carbon dioxide through osmosis in blood stream which then is exchanged by lungs for oxygen we inhale and the cycle continues.
