Yes, nuclear energy does not produce CO2 by-products. No by-products are released into the atmosphere, all are contained within the reactor. The energy comes from a neutron colliding with a uranium atom causing it to split into two different atoms.

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 if a plant does photosynthesis if it doesnt have carbon dioxide?

Plants need carbon dioxide to carry out photosynthesis. Without carbon dioxide, the plant would not be able to produce glucose, a key energy source. As a result, the plant's growth and development would be severely stunted.

Why is there less carbon dioxide breathed out when exercising?

During exercise, your body produces more carbon dioxide as a result of increased metabolism. However, the increased breathing rate during exercise allows for more efficient removal of carbon dioxide from the body, preventing an accumulation of CO2 in the bloodstream. This helps maintain the balance of carbon dioxide levels in the body despite the increased production during exercise.


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!


What Physical change or chemical change is Breathing?

Breathing is a chemical process. When air is breathed in, it reacts chemically; when a person breathes out, they release more carbon dioxide than they breathed in, and less oxygen.


Do animals inhale carbon dioxide or oxygen?

Nope -- they do just exactly the opposite: inhale and use oxygen, and exhale more carbon dioxide, just as all mammals do. This was an old wive's tale that's been around for years, that goes on to say cats can suck away a baby's breath -- which has no basis in fact whatsoever.
