Plants depend on the atmosphere for the largest source of carbon dioxide, which they use during photosynthesis to produce sugars and oxygen.
Oceans
The ocean is a source of moisture to the atmosphere through a process called evaporation. As water is heated by the sun, it turns into water vapor and rises into the atmosphere. This water vapor eventually condenses to form clouds and precipitation, contributing to the water cycle.
Plants depend on the atmosphere for the largest source of carbon dioxide, which they use in photosynthesis to produce glucose and oxygen.
The principal source of atmospheric moisture is evaporation from oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers. This water vapor is then transported through the atmosphere, where it can condense into clouds and eventually fall as precipitation.
