True or false the main carbon cycle is conversion from carbon dioxide to living matter and back to carbon dioxide?

True. The main carbon cycle involves the conversion of carbon dioxide into living matter through photosynthesis by plants, which is then released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide through respiration and decomposition processes.


True or false removal of forests reduces the earth ability to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?

True. Forests play a crucial role in absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis. When forests are removed, this natural carbon sink is diminished, leading to an increase in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.


Magnesium will not decompose when heated to form magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide?

Magnesium will actually decompose when heated to form magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide. This is a common chemical reaction where magnesium reacts with oxygen from the air to form magnesium oxide, and if there is any carbon present, it can also react to form carbon dioxide.


How do carbon dioxide molecules enter the light dependent reactions?

Carbon dioxide molecules enter the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis through tiny pores on the underside of leaves called stomata. Once inside the leaf, carbon dioxide diffuses into the chloroplasts where it participates in the Calvin cycle to produce sugars.


Is it true or false that the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere has been increasing since 1900?

True. The carbon dioxide level in the Earth's atmosphere has been increasing since around 1900 due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. This increase in carbon dioxide is a major contributor to global warming and climate change.
