Describe two important functions for carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
Some important functions of CO2 are described below: (i) Carbon dioxide is used up by plants to prepare their food through photosynthesis. Thus, atmospheric carbon dioxide provides us food through plants. (ii) Carbon dioxide dissolves an ocean water to form sedimentary carbonate rocks such as marble. (iii) Carbon dioxide gas can absorb infrared radiation. This property of carbon dioxide has helped in maintaining temperature on the earth atomic a moderate level. Earth’s moderate temperature is necessary for the existence of life on this planet. (iv) Carbon dioxide gas produces greenhouse effect, leading to the heating of earth and its atmosphere, which is essential for our survival. (v) Carbon dioxide takes part in the photosynthesis process carried out by green plants to prepare food for plants and animals. (vi) Carbon dioxide dissolves in oceans to form carbonate rocks.
