"fix" carbon dioxide?
If turning CO2 into oxygen is what you meant.
They are called plants. Better go with the green ones.
They use light, CO2 and H2O as food and ends up producing O2 or oxygen.
There would be significantly more CO2 in the atmosphere because plants take in CO2 during photosynthesis and fix the carbon into glucose.
C3 and C4 plants are both categories of plants based on the type of photosynthetic pathway they use. Both types of plants undergo the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide and produce sugar during photosynthesis. However, C4 plants have an additional carbon-concentrating mechanism that allows for more efficient photosynthesis in hot and dry conditions compared to C3 plants.
When plants fix CO2, they convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into organic compounds through photosynthesis. This process is essential for plants to build their tissues and produce food for growth and development.
It's important to all life. Starting with plants there is a chain. Plants fix carbon dioxide into starches and sugars during photosynthesis. They use the energy of light to make CO2 and water into sugars. We animals need them to do that so that we can have food and get energy. We digest the sugars and starches produced by plants, in our gut, and that feeds our cells.
Yes, the reactions that fix carbon dioxide are sometimes called dark reactions because they do not directly require light energy to occur. These reactions typically take place in the stroma of chloroplasts during photosynthesis and are also known as the Calvin cycle.
A C4 plants do not fix oxygen because it does not contain the enzyme RuBisCO which fixed either carbon dioxide or oxygen. A special enzyme is used which only allows the carbon dioxide to be fixed. Lets look at C3 plants. C3 plants have RuBisCO which allows them to either fix carbon dioxide or oxygen. In a dry region, the oxygen level may increase while carbon dioxide level may decrease. This means that more oxygens are fixed in a process called photorespiration. Photorespiration is completely useless as it contains no energy, but you can't stop it because there are too much oxygen with not enough carbon dioxide.
The primary source of carbon for carbon fixation in plants is carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. In photosynthesis, plants use the enzyme RuBisCO to fix CO2 into organic molecules, eventually producing glucose for energy.
C3, C4, and CAM are different photosynthetic pathways used by plants to fix carbon dioxide. C3 plants, such as wheat and rice, use the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide. C4 plants, like corn and sugarcane, use a different enzyme to fix carbon dioxide and are more efficient in hot and dry conditions. CAM plants, such as cacti and pineapple, open their stomata at night and fix carbon dioxide into organic acids to use during the day.
There would be significantly more CO2 in the atmosphere because plants take in CO2 during photosynthesis and fix the carbon into glucose.
have a specialized pathway that allows them to concentrate carbon dioxide in a different cell before it enters the Calvin cycle, which reduces photorespiration and increases photosynthetic efficiency. This adaptation is advantageous in arid conditions where water loss through stomata needs to be minimized.

Yes, zonal geraniums are C3 plants. They rely on the C3 photosynthesis pathway to fix carbon dioxide during photosynthesis.
