How is the oxygen in the atmosphere replaced?
Through oxygen cycle. Humans and animals take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen. This ways the oxygen is circulated in the atmosphere.
What equation represents photosynyhesis?
Carbon Dioxide + Water ---->Glucose + Oxygen
The respiratory quotient is?
The ration of the carbon dioxide produced to the volume of oxygen consumed
When does oxyhemoglobin form?
Oxyhaemaglobin is an unstable molecule in the blood stream. On breathing in air( oxygen) oxygen combines with hemaglobin to form oxyhemaglobin. It is then transported around the body to the point of usage (muscle movement ), whereupon, it discharges the oxygen component to combines with carbon dioxide, formed from muscle activity. It is now carboxyhemaglobin, and is transported back to the lungs , where the carbon dioxide is discharged/(uncombined) , and more oxygen is re-combined. Such are the subtlties of hemaglobin it will combined and discharge oxygen and carbon dioxide., as part of the normal respiritary physiological process. However, if carbon MONOXIDE(CO) is breathed in this process between oxygen and carbon DIOXIDE (CO2) is broken. So no more oxygen can be breathed in or carbon dioxide breathed out. Hence Carbon Monoxide poisoning. Carbon Monoxide is a very powerful LIGAND. There is only one oxygen atom difference between CO & CO2 , but it makes all the difference between normal functioning and 'death'. Hemaglobin is a very large molecule, with iron(III) (Fe^(3+)) at the centre of the porphyrin ring, and there is a very subtle interplay between electrons in this molecule that allows the oxygen and carbon dioxide, to combine and discharge. Iron in oxidation state 'III' is a RED/Brown ion, hence the colour of blood.
What is point of the attachment of a leaf to a stem?
So the leaf will live and create carbon dioxide to make oxygen and we live.
Which gases are involve in photosynthesis?
There is only one gas. It is the CO2 gas.
Is photosynthesis to oxygen as respiration is to carbon dioxide?
Photosynthesis emmits oxygen as end product Like that respiration release carbon dioxide.
Does carbon dioxide released oxygen in photosynthesis?
no, only water realeases oxygen and carbon dioxide.
What does photosynthesis transform elemental carbon into?
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide into oxygen.
Carbon dioxide is a product of photosynthesis?
Actually, carbon dioxide is a reactant in photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen as a byproduct.
What materials are products of photosynthesis a oxygen and glucose b oxygen and carbon dioxide c carbon dioxide and water or d water and oxygen?
Photosynthesis takes carbon dioxide and uses sunlight to split it into carbon and oxygen, releasing the oxygen into the air, and combining the carbon with water from the ground to create glucose.
Does photosynthesis take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere?
No, Cellular Respiration returns carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere: Photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water -> Light Energy -> Sugar + Oxygen Cellular Respiration: Sugar + Oxygen -> C.R. -> Carbon Dioxide + Water
What 2 gases are recycled by the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
The two gases that are recycled by the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration are oxygen and carbon dioxide. In photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen, while during cellular respiration, organisms take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
What is carbon plus something equals carbon dioxide?
Carbon plus oxygen equals carbon dioxide. When carbon undergoes combustion or oxidation, it combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide, releasing energy in the process.
Which 2 gases are exchanged at the surface of the air sac?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged at the surface of the air sac. Oxygen is taken in from the air into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide is released from the bloodstream into the air to be exhaled.
Does a plant use oxygen to make carbon dioxide during a photosynthesis?
No, they use carbon dioxide to make oxygen.
What reaction in photosynthesis makes ATP?
Respiration: Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + ATP + Water Photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + water + sunlight = Glucose + Oxygen
