Question

There is a scientific consensus that increasing carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere contributes to
global warming. Plants may provide a means to combat global warming because…..

Group of answer choices

plants generate CO2 as waste

plants use CO2 from the atmosphere to make glucose

plants generate ATP

plants can make NADPH

Answer 1

ANS- Plant use CO2 from the atmosphere to make glucose.

EXPLANATION-Plants capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and with the help of water and in the presence of light(sunlight) convert it into glucose and oxygen molecules, this process is called photosynthesis.

• Global warming refers to the increase in atmospheric temperature because of the increase of greenhouse gases such as CO2, CFCs, etc these gases trap the heat from the sun's radiation and increase the overall temperature of the earth, due to photosynthesis process the plants on earth captures this carbon dioxide and reduce the overall global warming effect.
