When a plant grows glucose molecules what is its source of carbon atoms?

The source of carbon atoms for glucose molecules in a plant is carbon dioxide (CO2) obtained from the air during photosynthesis. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide and water and use sunlight to convert them into glucose and oxygen.


How do plants participate in the cycling of oxygen and carbon dioxide on earth?

Right, to keep it quick and easy: Plant takes in Carbon dioxide, turns it into oxygen. Although plant also respires at night releasing CO2 and using O2, that doesn't matter as it releases more oxygen than it does carbon dioxide. When the plant dies and rots, the bacteria and fungi which break it down repire, and so the carbon cycle is completed as the co2 is once more released into the atmosphere ready to be consumed by another plant. hope that helps.


What important gas is produced during photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide. This is what the plant takes in to create sugars within the plant, allowing it to feed itself.


How do plant help in returning carbon dioxide into the air?

Plants use photosynthesis to absorb carbon dioxide from the air and convert it into oxygen and glucose. The glucose is then used as energy for the plant, while oxygen is released back into the air through a process called respiration. This cycle helps to maintain the balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the atmosphere.


What gas is giving off by a plant in sunlight?

Carbon Dioxide, or CO2, through the process of photosynthesis.Water + Carbon Dioxide =(energy)= Glucose + Oxygen

What is the role of the oxygen- carbon dioxide cycle?

Through the process of photosynthesis, a plant takes the carbon dioxide from the air produces and releases oxygen back into the air. They produce oygen and use carbon dioxide during the day.
