When a tree makes oxygen?

Answer 1

By the process of photosynthesis, trees take in Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O) to produce simple sugars which the tree uses as food. Sunlight provides the energy to break the existing covalent bonds and form new bonds between the elements. Since a tree only needs carbon atoms and water molecules to form its simple sugars, the oxygen atoms which were part of the CO2 molecules are "surplus" or "waste" in the photosynthesis reaction and are released back into the atmosphere. In order to produce the simplest sugar (called glucose or dextrose), 6 carbon atoms and 6 water molecules are required. The basic (simplest) photosynthesis reaction is 6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Answer 2

Trees, like other green plants, use a process called photosynthesis to create sugars (and more complex compounds made from sugars) using sunlight, air, and water, and producing oxygen as a by-product.

Answer 3

A tree absorbs carbon dioxide through its leaves, extracts the carbon to contribute to its growth, and releases the oxygen through its leaves. A tree also absorbs water through its roots, extracts the hydrogen to contribute to growth, and releases the oxygen through its leaves. That is how trees produce oxygen.

Answer 4

Trees are plants, and belong in the kingdom of plant species. Thus, like plants, trees are just as able to undergo photosynthesis just like your garden tomatoes or sunflowers. Thus, Oxygen is one of the waste products that is released during the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in plants like trees.

Answer 5

You bet they do! In fact,they make more oxygen than a flower does! You should be glad that trees make oxygen....they're all over the world! =)

Answer 6

so that we have oxygen to breath and the air is not filled with carbon dioxide

plant and flowers also produce oxygen through photosynthesis

Answer 7

By a process called 'photosynthesis' using the Water, Carbon Dioxide and the energy from sunlight.

Answer 8

Carbon dioxide is absorbed by the plant's leaves and turned into chemil energy,the remains of the carbon dioxide is oxygen which is then off by the leaves.

Answer 9

Photosynthesis
