Question

what is the name of the process that plants use to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?
transpiration
photosynthesis
respiration
decomposition

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Transpiration: Involves water vapor release from plants, not CO₂ removal.
• Photosynthesis: Plants use CO₂, sunlight, and water to make glucose and O₂, removing CO₂ from the atmosphere.
• Respiration: Releases CO₂ (opposite of what's needed).
• Decomposition: Breaks down organic matter, often releasing CO₂.

So the correct process is photosynthesis.

Answer:

B. photosynthesis
