Name two ways in which carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere-?
When the cells of plants and animals break down food to produce energy and when fossil fuels (Such as coal and gasoline) are burned.
Why should the sulfur dioxide be removed from the waste gases?
Sulphur dioxide in waste gasses combines with water in the atmosphere to produce acid rain.
How do plants and animals mantain the level of oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals breathe in oxygen and let out carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
What kinds of combustion fuel produce the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide?
Almost all fuels produce carbon dioxide when burnt, but only fossil fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas actually add to the amount of carbon dioxide naturally present in the atmosphere.
Why have the levels of carbon dioxide changed since the early earths atmosphere?
The atmosphere has changed because of population increases and lots of factories that produce the gas. Olivia Perli
How much sulfur dioxide is produced daily in our atmosphere?
The atmosphere doesn't produce any sulphur dioxide. It receives a fair bit from various human activities though.
Name two ways in which carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere-?
When the cells of plants and animals break down food to produce energy and when fossil fuels (Such as coal and gasoline) are burned.
Do Factory's make carbon dioxide?
Only factories that use and burn coal produce carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Forest fires and humans produce the most carbon dioxide.
What gas do animals produce that puts carbon back into the atmosphere?
Carbon Dioxide
What activities would NOT increase carbon dioxide in the bloodstream?
All activities release carbon dioxide in the blood stream. As long as you are alive, your cells will continue to produce carbon dioxide. Even resting or sleeping will not stop it.
Why should the sulfur dioxide be removed from the waste gases?
Sulphur dioxide in waste gasses combines with water in the atmosphere to produce acid rain.
Where do the carbon atoms come from to produce the certain sugar for photosynthesis?
From the animals around it breathing oxygen and converting it to carbon dioxide.
How do plants and animals mantain the level of oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals breathe in oxygen and let out carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
Is Acid rain created when water vapor in the atmosphere absorbs carbon dioxide?
Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.
How many atmosphere in planet Venus'?
Venus is extremely dense atmosphere with mostly carbon dioxide and a little of nitrogen. this atmosphere is 93 times of the earth's atmosphere. Venus has thick cloud layer of sulpher dioxide which produce the rain of sulpheric acid. it is the night-mare indeed to be there.
What happens to sulfur when burnt?
It becomes sulphur dioxide, a corrosive pollutant. The sulpher dioxide then mixes with water vapour in the atmosphere to produce acid rain.
Which activities limit the amount of carbon that is removed from the atmosphere?
The natural carbon cycle is for animals to produce carbon dioxide and for plants to absorb it, so that a long term balance is maintained, with carbon dioxide levels around 260-280 parts per million (ppm). When we cut down trees, without allowing new ones to replace them, this limits the amount of carbon that is removed from the atmosphere.
