What might decrease global atmospheric carbon dioxide?

There is no known way that humans can economically remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere; all we can really do is reduce our emissions of carbon dioxide and slow down the rate at which atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are increasing. The surface waters of the ocean do absorb some carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as atmospheric carbon dioxide level increase, but there is little interchange betwen the warm upper ocean and the deep layers. However over a period of several thousand years, there is sufficient interchange to absorb large volumes of carbon dioxide, allowing the atmospheric concentration to return more or less to normal. Afforestation. Planting trees will remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.


Which more contain more energy three molecules of carbon dioxide or one molecule of phosphoglyceraldehyde pgal?

One molecule of phosphoglyceraldehyde (PGAL) contains more energy than three molecules of carbon dioxide. PGAL is an intermediate in the process of photosynthesis and is a form of stored chemical energy, while carbon dioxide is a product of cellular respiration and does not contain any stored energy.


What does exhaled air contain more of than inhaled air?

More Oxygen, because some of it is processed into Carbon Dioxide (CO2).


What gas is 20 times better at collecting heat than carbon dioxide?

Methane blocks heat radiation twenty times more effectively per molecule than does carbon dioxide. Fortunately, atmospheric methane concentrations are very much lower than carbon dioxide.


Why does the ocean gain acid when glaciers melt?

Melting glaciers are associated with elevated levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, hence, the oceans become more acidic.

At the peak of the inspiratory phase the alveoli contain how much of oxygen and carbon dioxide?

More oxygen than carbon dioxide.


Why are atmospheric carbon dioxide levels increasing while total carbon levels remain constant?

Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are increasing because human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, release more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than natural processes can remove. This imbalance leads to a buildup of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, even though the total amount of carbon on Earth remains relatively constant.


Why do atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations fluctuate seasonally?

Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations fluctuate seasonally due to the natural processes of photosynthesis and respiration in plants. During the growing season, plants take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, which reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. In the winter, when plants are dormant, there is less photosynthesis and more respiration, leading to an increase in atmospheric CO2 levels.


Does glucose contain more energy than carbon dioxide and water?

yes


Does muddy water contain more carbon dioxide than clear water?

Not necessarily


How does atmospheric carbon dioxide impact pH levels in the ocean?

Atmospheric carbon dioxide dissolves in the ocean, forming carbonic acid. This lowers the pH levels of the ocean, making it more acidic. This process is known as ocean acidification and can harm marine life and ecosystems.


The atmospheric gas that forms a mild acid when dissolved in water is?

This would be carbon dioxide. When carbon dioxide dissolves in water (as all gases do to some extent) it forms carbonic acid, because the chemical formula would be in perfect balance. Carbonic acid has the chemical formula H2CO3. Also carbon dioxide dissolves into water more readily than many other atmospheric gases. CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3


Does ice contain carbon dioxide?

If you mean water ice, it will have more or less the same amount of carbon dioxide than the water it is made of. In other words, usually not much.
