Im not really sure about the water, other than the trees wouldn't be absorbing it so there would be extra? But a huge amount of trees like that produce a lot of oxygen, so there would not be less oxygen in the environment. Hope this helps!

Answer:

The amount of water in the area will reduce as well as the oxygen

Explanation:

Plants play a major role in sustaining an environment. Plants are photosynthetic organisms, which absorbs water in the soil via their roots and combine it with Carbondioxide (CO2), which enters their cells through their stomata, to produce food and release oxygen gas in the process. Through this photosynthetic action, plants help to increase the oxygen content in an area. However, they also help maintain water content because they lose a lot of their absorbed water to a process called TRANSPIRATION.

This transpiration process helps take water back into the atmosphere and cause rainfall in a rainforest. However, when trees are removed from an area, the amount of water supplied to that area via rain reduces as there would be no plants to absorb the water in the soil and transpirate in order to induce rain in the tropical rainforest. Also, due to low photosynthetic activities, oxygen is drastically reduced in that area.

There are the same amount of carbon atoms on Earth now as there were in the past, but there are more in the atmosphere ever befo
kupik [55]

The global average atmospheric carbon dioxide in 2019 was 409.8 parts per million (ppm for short), with a range of uncertainty of plus or minus 0.1 ppm. Carbon dioxide levels today are higher than at any point in at least the past 800,000 years.The carbon cycle describes the process in which carbon atoms continually travel from the atmosphere to the Earth and then back into the atmosphere. Since our planet and its atmosphere form a closed environment, the amount of carbon in this system does not change.
