Carbon exists as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis. All food chains start with plants so herbivores get carbon by eating plants and carnivores get carbon by eating herbivores.
Animals and people receive carbon primarily through the food they consume. Plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and convert it into carbohydrates, which are then consumed by animals. The carbon is then transferred through the food chain as animals eat plants or other animals.
Animals obtain their energy and carbon from consuming other living organisms, such as plants or other animals. They break down these organic molecules through digestion to extract the energy and carbon they need for their own growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
Animals produce carbon dioxide gas through respiration. This process involves taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide as a byproduct, therefore putting carbon back into the atmosphere.
CO2 (carbon dioxide).
During the process of photosynthesis release oxygen and animals (we) inhale oxygen and release carbondioxide. This is how plants and animals depend on each other by symbiosys. Hope that helps...
No, because man and animals produce carbon dioxide and plants needs carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide, CO2.
Carbon Dioxide
From the plants or animals they eat.
Plants and all kinds of vegetation, including grass, trees and rain forests absorb carbon dioxide and store it. About half the weight of a tree is carbon. Trees can store carbon for hundreds of years. Animals, including man, breathe out carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Carbon is also released from soil, oceans and from rotting vegetation. This is all part of the natural carbon cycle.One animal, man, adds a lot of extra carbon dioxide every day by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).If there were no trees or plants to remove carbon dioxide, and no animals to breathe out CO2, and no man to burn fossil fuels, the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere would probably rise very slowly.
Animals are carbon based lifeforms; their celular structure is based on carbon atoms. Animals consume food made of organic molecules, which are based on carbon atoms. Animals breath out carbon dioxide, CO2. Yes, animals use carbon.
Oxygen. Plants take in the Carbon Dioxide that man and animals exhale, and give off oxygen.
Animals produce carbon dioxide. Animals produce carbon dioxide
Animals give off a number of gasses during Day and night, most notably Carbon dioxide and methane gas. Oxygen is needed by man and animal.
No, animals are not primary consumers of carbon dioxide. Plants are the primary consumers of carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis. Animals, on the other hand, release carbon dioxide through respiration.
All organic materials contain carbon. Animals get their carbon by eating plants and other animals, such as vegetables, cereals and eggs.
