प्रश्न
State a reason why there is a balance in the amount of carbon dioxide in the air, even though carbon dioxide is released into the atmopshere by various processes.
उत्तर
By the way of photosynthesis in plants which occurs during daytime, carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll is changed into carbohydrates and oxygen is released out.
\[\ce{\underset{\text{(in air)}}{Carbon dioxide} + Water ->[sunlight][chlorophyll]\underset{\text{(glucose)}}{Carbohydrates} + Oxygen}\]
Hence, oxygen in the air is renewed by photosynthesis, and therefore the amount of oxygen in the air does not get depleted or removed from the air.
