LIFE SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -If carbon dioxide is completely removed from a plant’s environment, we would expect the plant to stop producing high-energy sugars altogether. CO2 is necessary for the plant to perform photosynthesis, meaning without CO2 the plant has no way to obtain energy-it will likely die in this scenario.

Detailed explanation-2: -During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose.

Detailed explanation-3: -What will happen if green plants stop taking in carbon dioxide & release oxygen? If the green plants stopped taking carbon dioxide, they will die and the human beings and animals would not get oxygen and would die too.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbon dioxide and rate of photosynthesis An increase in the carbon dioxide concentration increases the rate at which carbon is incorporated into carbohydrate in the light-independent reaction, and so the rate of photosynthesis generally increases until limited by another factor.
