On Earth carbon dioxide is mainly in ocean waters. It also can be in plants {photosynthesis}, and in rock melts.

Can cell catabolyze carbon dioxide?

No, cells cannot catabolize carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a waste product of cellular respiration and is typically released by cells into the bloodstream to be expelled from the body through exhalation.


Can you convert glucose into carbon dioxide?

Yes, cellular metabolism converts glucose to carbon dioxide all the time, and this reaction is the source of chemical energy for all other chemical reactions in cells. It is the fundamental source of energy for most organisms (with hydro-thermal vent organisms being an exception).


Why are levels of carbon dioxide high at night and low at noon?

Although CO2 changes very, very slightly on a daily basis, this difference can most likely be accounted for by plants' failure to undergo photosynthesis during night. This means that less carbon fixation occurs, and more is left in the air than during the day time when it is used to make carbohydrates. At the same time, autotrophic organisms such as humans take in oxygen and release more CO2 into the air, so CO2 levels are most likely highest at sunrise.


How much nitrogen dioxide is in the air?

The concentration of nitrogen dioxide in the air can vary depending on the location and time of day. In urban areas with high traffic or industrial activity, levels may be higher. However, the average concentration of nitrogen dioxide in outdoor air is typically around 20 parts per billion (ppb).


How much sulfur dioxide is in the air?

The concentration of sulfur dioxide in the air can vary depending on location, time, and source of emissions. Generally, levels of sulfur dioxide in the air are measured in parts per billion (ppb) or micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3). Regulatory agencies set limits for acceptable levels of sulfur dioxide in the air to protect human health and the environment.

How does corbon bioxide enter the atmosphere?

Carbon dioxide doesn't have to enter the atmosphere from anywhere outside the earth. You and I and every animal on earth breathe it out every time we want a new breath of fresh air, and great quantities of it are created every time any plant matter burns.


How does carbon dioxide affect plants and animals?

carbon dioxide is respiratory gas of plants. but when we harvest trees the corbon dioxide concentration is increases in atmosphere when that time the environment is imbalanced and get polluted this is very dangerous and it may cause global warming, floods and other respiratory diseases to humans aswell as animals.


What time of day is a plant most likely to absorb more carbon dioxide than it releases?

During the moderate day times.


Does the level of carbon dioxide rise or fall in a room over time?

The level of carbon dioxide typically rises in a room over time as people exhale carbon dioxide as they breathe.


Does a plant grow better with carbon minoxide or with oxygen?

Neither! Plants breathe carbon dioxide, which is a natural waste product of most animal respiration. I.e., humans and most other animals breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Plants breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen! Which is probably why some people think that it helps to talk to your plant from time to time. (Who knows? It might help it grow a little bit.)


How do you contribute to carbon dioxide levels?

Any time you use electricity you contribute to carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, as most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels. This also happens when you drive a vehicle, or fly in a plane.


Which body waste is excreted each time you breathe out?

It is carbon dioxide, a metabolic waste. But remember, most of it is retain in the body to adjust the pH.


Where is the most famous world time clock located?

What uses does the Respiratory System have?

The most common use of the respiratory system is the exchange of gases. When you exhale carbon dioxide, at the same time you inhale oxygen.


Carboniferous plus time scale plus 2010?

there is no word called carboniferous carbon is an element that has a grayish blackish color. its most common molecule is carbon dioxide. if you add that to the time scale, the carbon dioxide will add up in the atmosphere that we live in. ifyou add 2010 then you havethe amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the year 2010... which is alot. and people are tryingto reduce carbon emissions.
