Plants do produce carbon dioxide, however, the amount they produce is generally a net NEGATIVE amount.
Plants, like all carbon based life forms known to date produce carbon dioxide as they use energy for biological work. This is part of the normal functioning of cells that they require oxygen in order to do this work, during which they are consuming oxygen and sugars, bonding carbon with oxygen in the process creating carbon dioxide. If they did not do this, they could not grow, and could not repair damage.
HOWEVER, plants also take in carbon dioxide and use it combined with light energy in photosynthesis. This process separates the carbon and oxygen molecules, and the carbon is utilized in the preparation of stored energy ("food"). The oxygen molecules are released into the atmosphere.
In a healthy plant through the bulk of its life, the plant produces more oxygen and removes more carbon dioxide than it uses oxygen and produces carbon dioxide.
Exact amounts will vary based on available light, plant species, water, atmospheric condition and overall health of the plant.
In >general< the more green you see on the plant, the more of the plant involved in photosynthesis and the more oxygen it produces. however, this does not tell you how much oxygen it uses (and thus how much carbon dioxide it produces). but in general, plants (and other chlorophyll laden life forms) consume more carbon dioxide than they create.
Yes, plants emit carbon dioxide at night and when they die. Plants emit carbon dioxide and they also capture it again. Plants, along with forests and other kind of vegetation and the world's oceans, emit 97% of the global carbon dioxide emissions. But not only do they emit carbon dioxide, they also capture it. This natural process is called the Carbon Cycle.
I am a digital assistant and do not emit any gases.
Yes, cut flowers can emit carbon dioxide as they undergo respiration post-harvest. However, this emission is typically very minimal compared to the overall carbon dioxide emissions from other sources.
No, plants do not convert carbon monoxide (CO) to carbon dioxide (CO2). Plants are able to absorb and store carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, but they do not have the ability to convert carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide is typically produced by incomplete combustion of carbon-containing fuels.
Plants breathe in carbon dioxide through tiny openings on their leaves called stomata. They convert carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose through the process of photosynthesis to use as energy for growth. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas that can be harmful to plants and disrupt their normal respiratory functions.
Air conditioners themselves do not emit carbon dioxide. They may indirectly contribute to carbon dioxide emissions depending on the source of electricity they use. If the electricity is generated from fossil fuels, then using the air conditioner can indirectly result in carbon dioxide emissions.
Yes, humans emit carbon dioxide as a byproduct of respiration, which is the process of inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. Other activities like burning fossil fuels also contribute to human emissions of carbon dioxide.
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.
Yes, I think soil can emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

One relationship is plants emit oxygen which animals need to survive; animals then emit carbon dioxide which plants need to survive.
no
Plants and animals are both complex organisms that share in a cycle of carbon dioxide and oxygen. Animals breathe out carbon dioxide when they respirate and plants take that in through their leaves and then emit oxgen which animals inhale. And the cycle begins again.
Power stations using wind, solar natural hydro flows, geothermal, tidal flows and such generally do not emit pollutants. Nuclear power plants are non-polluting during normal operation. Gas powered plants emit carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides. G\Coal fired plants emit carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, radiation sulphur dioxide and particulates.
Both. Cars emit Hydrocarbons + Nitrogen Oxides + Carbon Dioxide + Carbon Monoxide. People emit Methane and Carbon Dioxide.
Reduction in Air Pollution. Nuclear power can also be part of a strategy to address carbon emissions. Nuclear power plants emit no carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, or nitrous oxides.
Carbon dioxide is not alive. It is a molecule composed of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms. It is a product of natural processes like respiration and combustion, and is essential for life on Earth.
It will take O2 gas. It will emit CO2 in the night.
