Why does a plant need carbon dioxide from the air to survive and carry out photosynthesis?

Plants need carbon dioxide from the air to survive and carry out photosynthesis because carbon dioxide is a key ingredient in the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide along with water and sunlight to produce glucose, which is a form of energy that plants need to grow and survive. Without carbon dioxide, plants would not be able to make their own food and would not be able to survive.
