Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which process adds carbon dioxide to Earth’s atmosphere?
A
Cellular respiration
B
Photosynthesis
C
Protein Synthesis
D
None of the Above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of respiration produces energy for organisms by combining glucose with oxygen from the air. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are changed into energy and carbon dioxide. Therefore, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere during the process of cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon is released back into the atmosphere when organisms die, volcanoes erupt, fires blaze, fossil fuels are burned, and through a variety of other mechanisms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to make carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. The molecule ATP is used for energy to run cellular processes. Carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere where it is used in photosynthesis by plants.
