Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which process reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
A
photosynthesis
B
cell respiration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide naturally-and trees are especially good at storing carbon removed from the atmosphere by photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon sequestration is the process of capturing and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide. It is one method of reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere with the goal of reducing global climate change.

Detailed explanation-3: -As photosynthetic organisms, plants take up atmospheric CO2, chemically reducing the carbon.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbon storage and exchange For example, in the food chain, plants move carbon from the atmosphere into the biosphere through photosynthesis. They use energy from the sun to chemically combine carbon dioxide with hydrogen and oxygen from water to create sugar molecules.
