Concentration Of Carbon Dioxide

Colorless, dense, low reactive gas.

The environmental impact of population growth has caused Contamination problems which have vast natural implications. Meanwhile a great deal of media and public attention has focused on the effects that higher concentrations of CO₂ are likely to have on global climate. In general, the carbon, hydrogen and oxygen assimilated into organic molecules by photosynthesis represent approximately 96% of the total dry mass of a typical plant. While elevated CO₂ makes carbon more available, plants also require other resources including minerals obtained from the soil.Rising CO₂ is therefore likely to have complex effects on the growth and composition of natural plant communities.
