Plants are producers. Unlike consumers, producers take in Carbon Dioxide (a gas), and release Oxygen. Bacteria also plays a big part in the life cycle of plants, turning nitrogen into a kind plants can use. With all this, the plant can breath so it can continue its life by making chlorophyll from the sun's energy. Is that a good answer? Please give feedback. Thanks.

What gas causes food to ripen?
The gas that causes food to ripen is Methane - It's commonly used to ripen bananas on an industrial scale.
What is an example of air?
GAS
What gas makes a popping noise when you light it?
The gas making the popping noise is hydrogen.
How do plants give off waste?
Plants give off waste as a products through photosynthesis. These wastes include but are not limited to oxygen the gas.
What is the function of each gas found in air?
Oxygen- It is important for human existance. And also for cooking food because it helps burning. Nitrogen- It is useful for plant's roots. Carbon- Food is made up of mainly by carbon,hydrogen & oxygen. so it is important for making food. Hydrogen- function is food making. Neon,Argon,Xenon,Crypton- These all gases are noble or stable gases. Means their atoms have full no. of electrons. Means no extra or less electron is there. So their function is to keep the atmosphere balanced. Carbon-di-oxide- It keeps temparature balanced of atmosphere or air. Helium- It is very light-weight gas. So it is important in mansoon.
What gas is released by plants during the food making process?
oxygen
When plants make their own food they add what gas to the atmosphere?
Plants add oxygen to the atmosphere during photosynthesis or food making.
What is the gas carbon dioxide used for?
For making sugar in plants.
The gas given out by plants during their food making process?
Oxygen
What is the name of the gas that is removed from the atmosphere by plants during the food- making process?
Photosynthesis.photosynthesis
What gas exhaled by animals but used by plants to make food is?
carbon dioxide used by plants in photosynthesis
What gas is used by plants to make food?
Carbon Dioxide
What is the name of the gas plants release when they make food?
Carbon Dioxide
Which gas is used by plants to make food during photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
Gas from photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide is used. Oxygen gas is released
The gas in air used by plants to make food is?
Carbon-dioxide
What gas do plants use in the process of making food?
Oxygen! O2. The proses that plants go through to get food (aka glucose) is photosynthesis. The formula for photosynthesis is:6Co2 (carbon dioxide) + 6H2O (water) --> C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2 (oxygen)
