How do sharks use carbon dioxide?
Sharks primarily use carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste product of respiration. When they breathe, they extract oxygen from the water and release CO2, which is then expelled back into the surrounding environment. Additionally, some species of sharks can sense elevated levels of CO2 in the water, which may help them locate prey or detect changes in their environment. However, sharks do not utilize CO2 in the same way that plants do for photosynthesis.
A shark will attack anything that struggles in the water.
I've never heard of sharks eating Polar bears, although they might attack one if they catch up with one as it's drowning. Otherwise, the Polar bear would fight back, and because sharks are scavengers, they don't like to fight for their food.
Orcas (Killer whales) ARE known to prey upon Polar bears.
"no they can not the shark and the polar bear are both predators which means te polar bear might kill the shark with its sharp claws and because sharks swim in warm water not cold"
Polar bears rarely make kills on their main prey, seals, in open water. What makes you think a polar bear would be able to kill a SHARK in open water. 8 species of sharks have been spotted in the arctic region. Of these sharks the most likely to be found sharing the water with a polar bear is the Greenland Shark. This shark is one of the largest species of sharks and patrols underneath arctic ice sheets for fish, seals, and small whales. Sharks are opportunistic feeders and will "inspect" anything that is struggling in the water. A struggling polar bear could well make for a target for this shark, though there is no video evidence that I could find to prove it. Do sharks eat polar bears? Not really, they are clearly not a main prey source. Could a polar bear make for a target of opportunity for a shark? Absolutely, somewhere at some time a shark has eaten a polar bear. Guaranteed.
Hi,
To those who do not know the answer to this question.
Yes, although it is not their first choice with their dinner however. They tend to eat it if they cannot find their usual prey.
Thank you for searching this question....
Yours Faithfully,

What are the disadvantages of eating shark fin's?
Well, if you eat a shark fin, you have to cut off the shark fin first and a shark without fins is pretty much doomed and will drown because it can't get oxygen. And shark fins are expensive.

What was the diet for a megalodon?
The Megalodon was thought to hunt the larger of the Marine Mammals; including whales, giant sea turtles, and other sharks.
What is the temperature megalodon lived in?
The megalodon, "big tooth" in Greek, from μέγας and ὀδούς) was a mega-tooth shark that lived in the prehistoric times, during the late Oligocene epoch and Neogene period, approximately 25 to 1.5 million years ago, and was a super-preditor.
paleontological research indicates that C. megalodon is the largest and most powerful macro-predatory fish in vertebrate history. C. megalodon is principally known from partially preserved skeletal remains, which indicate a shark of gigantic proportions - approaching a length of around 20 metres (66 ft), larger than any other species, extinct or extant. After scrutiny of its remains, scientists have assigned C. megalodon to the order Lamniformes but its genius is disputed. Scientists suggest that C. megalodon looked like a stockier version of the great white shark in life. Fossil evidence confirms that C. megalodon had a cosmopalitan distribution. Bite marks on fossil bones from C. megalodon indicate that it preyed upon large marine animals. Therefore, they lived in warmer places then other areas.
