Cellular respiration is the process that consumes oxygen and releases CO2 in organisms to produce energy in the form of ATP. It occurs in the mitochondria of cells and involves a series of metabolic reactions that break down glucose and other nutrients.

Can photosynthesis release oxygen?

Yes, the process of photosynthesis releases the O2 (oxygen) in CO2.


What is the process that releases energy from food in the prescence of oxygen?

oxygen + glucose = engergy + CO2 + H2O


How are cell respiration and photosynthesis connected?

cell respiration consumes oxygen and sugars and produces CO2, photosynthesis consumes CO2 and produces oxygen and sugars


How much CO2 will be produced by boiling a kettle each time?

Boiling a kettle typically releases around 0.15 kg (150 grams) of CO2 into the atmosphere each time, mostly from the energy it consumes during the boiling process.


Does The combustion of fossil fuels releases oxygen into the atmosphere?

No, the combustion of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, not oxygen. Oxygen is consumed during the combustion process to help the fuel burn, but it is not released as a byproduct.


What is the transformation of carbon dioxide to oxygen?

During photosynthesis in plants, carbon dioxide (CO2) is transformed into oxygen (O2) through the process of converting carbon dioxide into glucose via energy from sunlight. This process releases oxygen as a byproduct, which is then released into the atmosphere.


Does combustion release oxygen into the atmosphere?

no it burns the oxygen and releases co2 (carbondioxide) among other pollutants


What breathes in oxygen and releases CO2?

Animals, including humans, breathe in oxygen and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct of cellular respiration. This process allows cells to produce energy by breaking down glucose in the presence of oxygen.


Do plants take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide?

During the day they do yes: Plants are living things and their metabolism constantly 'burns' food using Oxygen and producing CO2, they do this all the time, day and night. However, during the day plant is bombarded by photons (i.e. light). The light allows the plant to photosynthesise, turning CO2 and water into Hydrocarbons for food and releasing Oxygen. The amount of Oxygen produced is surplus to its metabolic requirements and is therefore released into the atmosphere. At night photosynthesis closes down because there is no light so the plant consumes oxygen and releases CO2 like animals.


Which process releases CO2 in the atmosphere?

The burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas for energy production releases CO2 into the atmosphere. This process is a significant contributor to the increased levels of CO2 in the atmosphere and is a major driver of climate change.


How do houseplants increase the amount of oxygen in your home?

Oxygen is a bi product of living plants. As the plant during light hours takes in co2 it releases oxygen. During the dark hours the plant does not use co2 but uses oxygen and produces co2.


What does cellular respiration realease into the air?
