The process where organisms release carbon dioxide
Cellular respiration
What 3 things does a plant need to go through photosynthesis?

How do animals get their energy?
By eating plants or other animals
What did the econauts to with the dead matter?
buried it

How can a decrease in carbon dioxide harm the biodome?
producers cant use CO2 for photosynthesis
A chemical reaction between oxygen and glucose that releases energy into cells and carbon dioxide into ecosystem
cellular respiration
How do plants and animals interact in the carbon cycle?
Plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. Animals breathe in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide.
Where does photosynthesis take place?
Chloroplast
If the amount of carbon in the air is decreasing, are the plants in sunlight?
In Sunlight because it is taking in carbon
How did burying the dead matter harm the biodome?
They were not getting ESM and dying. Not able to release carbon dioxide
An organism that uses sunlight to make its own food for energy.
Producer
Describe what caused a decrease in cellular respiration in the biodome
Buried dead matter, decomposers decreased
