Oxygen is the waste product of the process photosynthesis. The tree uses carbon dioxide, water and sunlight (this is trapped by the green pigment in leaves called chlorophyll), to create glucose. Oxygen is released as a waste product.

How or where does a tree get oxygen to give us?
A tree absorbs carbon dioxide from the air, and, with the input of energy from sunlight, oxidizes many of the oxygen atoms of the absorbed carbon dioxide to elemental oxygen, which is released into the atmosphere. The carbon and some of the oxygen atoms from the absorbed carbon dioxide are incorporated into the structure of the tree as the tree grows.
Does a tree give oxygen?
A tree takes in carbon dioxide, and returns oxygen to the atmosphere.
Why is more carbon dioxide being produced?
More carbon dioxide is being produced primarily due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These activities release large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
Is that true about trees turn carbon dioxide into oxygen?
Yes. Trees take in carbon dioxide and water. Using sunlight they turn this into carbon, oxygen and sugar. They store the carbon and release the oxygen. This is called photosynthesis.
How does a redwood tree help a deer to live?
In a sense yes, but not necessarily, see a tree produces oxygen and takes in carbon dioxide. A deer takes in oxygen and produces carbon dioxide. So a tree, for instance a redwood, can provide oxygen that the deer needs in order to survive, and the deer produces carbon dioxide that a tree needs to survive.
Can earth run out of oxygen?
If we cut down all the tree's it could. Tree's recycle carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen.
How can a tree prevent global warming?
It converts carbon dioxide into oxygen. Carbon dioxide traps heat so when the trees convert carbon dioxide into oxygen, it not only reduce the amount of heat by a bit but also give us oxygen to breathe in.
Can you make a sentence using the word tree?
A Tree can produce oxygen as well has carbon-dioxide.
What is taken in from the air by the tree?
maybe oxygen because it releases carbon dioxide
What is it called when a tree breathes is carbon dioxide and releases oxygen?
lucky for humans
Are trees made of carbon?
About half the body weight of a tree is carbon. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, stores the carbon, and releases the oxygen. As the tree grows, it stores more and more carbon.
Where does the stuff the tree is made of come from?
About half the body weight of a tree is carbon. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, stores the carbon, and releases the oxygen. As the tree grows, it stores more and more carbon.
