Animals, like humans, exhale carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is taken in by plants, and through the process of photosynthesis produce oxygen.

What important greenhouse gases does exhaled air contain?

Humans and all other animals exhale carbon dioxide, as part of the natural cycle, in which plants absorb the carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. As long as we have enough plants in the form of trees, algae and other vegetaion, this cycle is sustainable with no increase in atmospheric greenhouse gases. Cows and sheep also exhale methane, which is a potent greenhouse gas that is not absorbed by plants. This has been blamed as a significant contributor to global warming.


What are the 5 steps of carbon dioxide oxygen cycle?

Carbon dioxide is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis, where it is converted into oxygen and glucose. Oxygen is released by plants as a byproduct of photosynthesis and is used by animals during respiration. Animals inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide as a waste product of respiration. Carbon dioxide is absorbed by plants again to continue the cycle. This constant exchange of gases between plants and animals helps maintain the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.


True or false animals get nitrogen by eating decomposers?

False. Animals do not get nitrogen directly by eating decomposers. Rather, animals obtain nitrogen by consuming plants or other animals that have already processed and absorbed nitrogen from the environment. Decomposers break down organic matter and release nitrogen back into the soil, where plants can then absorb it.


How have plants and animals adapt to life on land?

Plants and animals have adapted to feed, reproduction, and life on land by utilizing oxygen or carbon dioxide that is absorbed through lungs or via photosynthesis rather than using gills. They have adapted with fur to keep them warm and legs to move them safely on land. Plants have adapted to utilize sunlight and animals to reproduce.


How do plants and animals get food?

Plants create their own food through photosynthesis, using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. Animals obtain food by consuming plants, other animals, or both. Through digestion, animals break down food into nutrients that can be absorbed and used by the body for energy and growth.

Oxygen is actually breathed in by animals. It is carbon dioxide which is exhaled by animals. Plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.


What is a biotic factor of the environment A CO2 exhaled B o2 used by animals C water d leaves?

The Carbon Cycle is the process in which carbon passes through the environment. The CO2 is exhaled by animals, who inhale the O2 released by plants. The plants absorb the CO2 through their stoma and use it in the reaction during photosynthesis for energy production.

How do plants get nutrients from animals?

Plants do not actively get nutrients from animals. Instead, some plants have evolved to form mutualistic relationships with animals, such as certain types of carnivorous plants that capture and digest insects for additional nutrients.
