Question

1. how can the planting of new trees help reduce climate change? a trees help create breezes. b. trees release moisture that cools the atmosphere. c. trees take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. d. trees block the release of greenhouse gases from soil.

Explanation:

Trees perform photosynthesis, a process where they absorb carbon - dioxide ($CO_2$), a major greenhouse gas, from the atmosphere and convert it into oxygen and organic compounds. This helps in reducing the concentration of $CO_2$ in the atmosphere, thereby mitigating climate change. While trees can have other effects like releasing moisture and creating breezes, the primary way they help reduce climate change is through carbon - dioxide uptake.

Answer:

C. Trees take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.
