What would happen to co2 if there was less plants
MArishka [77]

Answer:

More carbon dioxide (CO2) would be in our atmosphere.

Explanation:

Plants undergoing photosynthesis take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and give out oxygen (O2). They essentially use the CO2 to make sugars that keep them alive. Excess plant CO2 is then given off back into the environment, just like how we exhale CO2 after taking a breath.

So, no plants to take in the CO2 equals more CO2 in the environment.

Think of it kinda like this: I like Pop Tarts. If there is less or none of me in the world, there are more Pop Tarts just... out there... waiting to be eaten.

Which reaction is responsible for the production of lipids when glycerol is joined to three fatty acids?
Anna35 [415]

This reaction is called a condensation reaction. It is also known as  a dehydration reaction.

When three fatty acids become attached to a glycerol molecule, a triglyceride is formed.  The fatty acids become attached to the glycerol through a condensation reaction named so because 3 water molecules are formed from the 3 OH groups from the fatty acid chains and 3 H atoms from the glycerol.

The bond formed between the fatty acid chain and the glycerol is called an ester linkage.
