and life as we know it will be over

What would happen to a plant if it is cut off from carbon dioxide?

it will die


What will happen if all the trees were cut down which gas would increase?

the carbon dioxide will increase


If we cut down tropical rain forest will it produce carbon dioxide?

No it won 't. Carbon dioxide is from the trees. If people cut down trees we won't have carbon dioxide.


How could cutting down trees lead to the build up of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. When trees are cut down and not replaced, this carbon dioxide is no longer absorbed, leading to an increase in its levels in the atmosphere. Additionally, when trees are burnt or decompose, the stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.


What will happen if the supply of carbon dioxide is permamently cut off?

Plants "breathe" carbon dioxide. They use it in photosynthesis. If carbon dioxide was completely wiped out, plants would die. During photosynthesis, plants turn carbon dioxide into oxygen, which we humans breathe. Once the plants die, humans would also die from lack of oxygen. Carbon dioxide is not something we should try to get rid of completely. The bulk of the carbon dioxide is created by nature. Man produces 3 to 6% of the CO2, the rest is natural.


What gases are produced when you cut down trees?

carbon dioxide


Do cut flowers emit carbon dioxide?

Yes, cut flowers can emit carbon dioxide as they undergo respiration post-harvest. However, this emission is typically very minimal compared to the overall carbon dioxide emissions from other sources.


What incresses carbon dioxide?

When we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Also, it will increase when the plants and trees are being cut down because when this happens, there will be nothing to absorb carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide continues to increase, global warming will also worsen.


What gas in the air would increase if a large trees were cut down?

The concentration of carbon dioxide in the air would increase if large trees were cut down. Trees help to absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, so removing them would result in less carbon dioxide being removed from the atmosphere.


Which gas would increase if trees were cut down?

Carbon dioxide


How can deforestation intensify the greenhouse effect?

Trees store carbon dioxide. When they get cut down they realease this gas. It contributes to greenhouse gases. now that there is so much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere they are letting it offeven if they are not cut down. also scientists have found that over rainforests that clouds are forming higher letting little rain reaching rainforests drying them up. soon they will all be gone! The answer above is very, very wrong. Yes, trees store carbon dioxide. However, when they are cut, this carbon dioxide is not released. On the contrary, it is permanently [b]sequestered[/b] in the wood and wood products made from that tree. (Next time, do some research before you delete information provided by someone who knows what he is talking about.) On the other hand, if we didn't cut them down, then they would eventually die. And when the die, they will rot. And When they rot, they will release that carbon dioxide. Moreover, once they are cut, if the acreage is replanted with seedlings, those seedlings will grow much faster, and store more carbon dioxide per year, than the older trees that were cut down. The one thing that should be avoided, however, is burning trees. Like rotting, this releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, only very suddenly, rather than gradually as with rotting.


How much carbon dioxide is released during the cutting of a tree?

The only carbon dioxide released by simply cutting the tree is that which is produced by the energy required to cut the tree: the human breathing out carbon dioxide as he swings an axe or uses a saw, the carbon dioxide emitted by a chainsaw's combustion engine, or the carbon dioxide emitted by logging machinery while cutting the tree. Significantly more carbon is emitted afterward as the lumber is transported from the site and as the tree is cut up into smaller pieces, then the smaller pieces are shipped all over. Finally, as the wood biodegrades (or burns), some carbon dioxide will be released.
