Burning biomass doesn't add extra carbon to the atmosphere because the carbon released during combustion is part of the natural carbon cycle. Biomass, such as plants, absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. When it is burned, the carbon is released back into the atmosphere, but this is a re-release of carbon that was previously absorbed, maintaining a balance as long as new plants continue to grow and sequester carbon. Thus, it is considered carbon-neutral over the short term, assuming sustainable management of biomass resources.

What role does the carbon cycle play in this problem of global climate change?
In the desert, the carbon cycle is a continuous and non-stop process. Plants and the atmosphere exchange carbon. Carbon is released when plants breathe and when organisms die. The cycle starts again when plants use the carbon that has been released.
How does respiration affect the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Respiration, breathing, has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This is part of the natural carbon cycle. Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases carbon dioxide that has been hidden away for millions of years. This extra gas is increasing in the atmosphere.
What is the atmosphere of Mars liike?
The atmosphere of Mars is thin and composed mainly of carbon dioxide with traces of nitrogen and argon. It is much less dense than Earth's atmosphere and cannot support human life without significant technological assistance.
How does respiration change the amount of another gas in the atmosphere?
it doesnt
How do plate tectonics change the earths atmosphere?
Plate tectonics can change the Earth's atmosphere through volcanic activity at plate boundaries. Volcanoes release gases like carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, affecting its composition and contributing to natural climate change. Tectonic movements can also impact weather patterns and circulation in the atmosphere.

What are advanteges to biomass?
doesnt produce hazordous wastes\
How does drax produce electricity?
Drax Power Station in the UK produces electricity primarily by burning biomass (wood pellets), as well as some coal and gas. The process involves heating water to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity. The plant also uses carbon capture and storage technology to reduce its emissions.

Where can you put carbon dioxide so it doesnt go into the atmosphere?
If you freeze it (probably only in lab conditions) it will turn to a solid and therefore will not pollute the air!
Does skin contain carbon?
No it doesnt.
How do you create an humorous atmosphere when writing?
she doesnt do that lol
How does respiration change the amount of another gas in the atmosphere?

Why does coke not emit smoke while burning?
coke probably does emit gases, but you dont see them cause they are clear, but it doesnt emit smoke, which i am guessing would refer to carbon dioxide, because burning coke does not create it as one of its products. i am not sure what coke has in it exactly, so if someone can explain better then please do.
How do Venus flytraps take in carbon dioxide?
it doesnt breathe
Draw and explain the oxygen carbon dioxide cycle?
If you google "diagram oxygen-carbon dioxide cycle", from the image search, you'll see tons of diagrams. I tried to post one, in response to your question, but some rude person deleted it without any explanation.
