<span>Carbon dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere mainly by fossil fuel combustion but also by forest fires and some natural processes. The gas can also be pulled out of the atmosphere into the tissues of growing plants or absorbed by the waters of Earth's oceans. A series of recent studies suggested that natural sinks of carbon dioxide might no longer be keeping up with the increasing rate of emissions. If that were to happen, it would cause a faster-than-expected rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide and projected climate change impacts.</span>

eimsori [14]
They have chloroplasts. They do not possess mobility because they cannot just stand up and walk to the nearest river. Unicellular organisms are very small, and most organisms are multi-cellular, including plants. Plants, animals, and fungi are eukaryotic, but only bacteria is prokaryotic.
