Nope -- they do just exactly the opposite: inhale and use oxygen, and exhale more carbon dioxide, just as all mammals do. This was an old wive's tale that's been around for years, that goes on to say cats can suck away a baby's breath -- which has no basis in fact whatsoever.
What else can I help you with?
Which gas do animals remove from the air?
The gas that is taken in by animals is oxygen. Animals absorb oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and let out oxygen.
What does respiration remove from the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide is being released. As you breathe in you inhale fresh oxygen, but as you breathe out your body releases carbon dioxide.
What do humans breathe out and plants breathe in?
Carbon dioxide . It is part of the Carbon and Oxygen cycles. Humans ( all animals) breath in ( inhale) oxygen . It is used internally in the animated organism. It is then breathed out ( exhaled) as carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a heavy gas, and 'falls' to the ground. Whereupon , it is absorbed by green plant life. Then under the process of photosynthesis within the plant , the carbon dioxide is broken down in to oxygen and carbon. The oxygen is released back into the atmosphere, and the carbon is kept in the plant as biomass.
When people and animals breathe their cells take in oxygen from the air and release carbon dioxide which plants take in to make food?
That is correct. People and animals consume oxygen and release carbon dioxide, while plants consume carbon dioxide and release oxygen. It's a match made in heaven.
What absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?
The carbon dioxide is absorbed by: 1. Chlorophyll in green plants. The chlorophyll breaks down the carbon dioxide to carbon and oxygen. The carbon is used by the plant as a nutrient and the oxygen is released to the atmosphere. 2. Oceans. The carbon dioxide absorbed and dissolved in the water. The carbon dioxide is adsorbed by green algae and water micro organisms.
Do animals breath off carbon dioxide?
Animals exhale carbon dioxide and inhale oxygen just as humans do.
Do arctic wolves inhale and exhale oxygen?
Like all animals, they inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide.
What produces the carbon dioxide you inhale?
Most living animals inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide plants try to compensate for that so they can live on earth by soaking up the carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and excreting oxygen therefore we are inhaling the carbon dioxide we create
What mammals breathe?
Mammals inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, as do all animals.
How do plants and animals help each other in exchange of gases in atmosphere?
During the process of photosynthesis release oxygen and animals (we) inhale oxygen and release carbondioxide. This is how plants and animals depend on each other by symbiosys. Hope that helps...
Which gas do animals remove from the air?
The gas that is taken in by animals is oxygen. Animals absorb oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and let out oxygen.
Which do you inhale when you breathe oxygen or carbon dioxide?
Oxygen
What are two requirements for respiration?
Oxygen , carbon dioxide and a pair of lungs. Animals inhale Oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, through the lungs. Plants inhale carbon dioxide amd exhale oxygen, by photosynthesis. The carbon component of CO2 forms part of the biomass of the plant'.
Why are oxygen and carbon dioxide colorless and odorless?
because oxygen and carbon dioxide are what we inhale like wind
What do plants inhale and exhale during photosynthesis?
plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen
What does oxygen do to photoynthesis?
Photosynthesis takes in carbon dioxide and H2O (water) and spits out oxygen and glucose (sugar). Cellular respiration takes that oxygen and glucose and spits out carbon dioxide and H2O. plants inhale what animals exhale, and animals inhale what plants exhale.
Is eucalyptus leaf take oxygen or carbon dioxide?
All plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen.
