Which plants create the most oxygen in the environment?

The plants that create the most oxygen in the environment are typically large, leafy trees such as oak, maple, and beech trees. These trees have a high rate of photosynthesis, which allows them to produce more oxygen than smaller plants.


What would happen to the amount of oxygen in Earth and atmosphere if half the trees on Earth were cut down Why?

Cutting down half of the trees on Earth would reduce the amount of oxygen produced through photosynthesis, potentially leading to a decrease in atmospheric oxygen levels. However, the impact on overall oxygen levels would be mitigated by the fact that trees make up only a portion of the Earth's oxygen-producing plants. Other plants, as well as oceans and other sources, also contribute to the atmospheric oxygen supply.


Most of the worlds oxygen is produced by?

Most of the worlds oxygen is produced by Trees.


Where does most of the oxygen come from?

Most of the oxygen on Earth comes from photosynthesis, a process carried out by plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. These organisms take in carbon dioxide and water and use sunlight to produce oxygen as a byproduct.


'How much oxygen does one tree produce'?

It requires 22 trees to produce the amount of oxygen consumed by one person. (An acre of trees produces enough oxygen for 18 people). This data comes from the Northwest Territories Forest Management site. Approximately 2 Moles per second Not all trees produce the same amount of oxygen in the same amount of time. 'Evergreen' trees for example generally produce less oxygen per hour than their leafy cousins per time interval generally, however they do continue producing oxygen when their leafy cousins lose their leaves in the autumn, and to a point even well into the cold of winter in many areas. The more green there is to a tree, in general, the more oxygen it will produce. The specific species of tree is important to consider, as well as the age, size and health of the tree. A healthy 4 year old apple tree will produce more oxygen per day of summer sun than a dozen 4 year old trimmed 'bonsai' trees, simply because the 4 year old apple tree has a much greater volume of chlorophyll laden leaves (and large leaves) than the bonsai trees do. The amount of oxygen produced is dependent on the amount of chlorophyll involved in the photosynthesis process. Although there is also the consideration of how much oxygen does the tree consume as well. (Plants do both, consuming oxygen and producing carbon dioxide, and consuming carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. I presume you are asking about the NET oxygen production of the tree (which is the oxygen it produces minus the oxygen it uses. In order to know this, however, we would have to account for how much of the time it is receiving enough sunlight to achieve photosynthesis and how much oxygen it is producing during that time, less the amount of oxygen it is using during the entire day (and night) At night trees and other plants produce very little if any oxygen, but they continue cellular respiration (use of oxygen) at a lower rate.

Do trees stop producing oxygen as they age?

No,They are always producing Oxygen.No. The more leaves the more oxygen.


Do trees provide the most oxygen for the atmosphere?

While trees play a significant role in producing oxygen, they are not the sole source. Phytoplankton, algae, and other plants also contribute to oxygen production in the atmosphere through photosynthesis. Overall, terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems collectively contribute to the oxygen balance in the atmosphere.


Do you get more oxygen from trees or the ocean?

You get more oxygen from trees. Trees produce oxygen through photosynthesis, while the ocean produces oxygen mainly through phytoplankton. However, trees are more efficient at producing oxygen because there are more trees on land compared to phytoplankton in the ocean.


What are the world's largest oxygen producing organisms?

The world's largest oxygen-producing organisms are phytoplankton, specifically marine diatoms. These microscopic organisms play a critical role in producing oxygen through photosynthesis in the world's oceans. Additionally, tropical rainforests, like the Amazon, are also significant oxygen producers due to the high density of trees and plant life.


Top ten trees producing more oxygen ASKED BY VU2CRD?

You cannot determine which top ten trees produce the most oxygen. It does not go by the type of tree as much as it goes by the individual tree. A tree's age, and health impact how much oxygen is produced.

Why pipal gives oxygen in night?

The belief that peepal trees release oxygen at night is a myth. Like most plants, peepal trees photosynthesize during the day, producing oxygen as a byproduct. At night, they respire like other living organisms, consuming oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide.
