Tobacco smoke and certain environmental chemicals are known carcinogens (substances that can cause cancer in living tissue). The tobacco smoke from cigarette smoking contains harmful chemicals such as hydrogen cyanide, arsenic, ammonia, benzene, and many more. In fact, from 2009 to 2013, three out of 10 cancer deaths in the U.S have been attributed to cigarette smoking or exposure to tobacco smoke.

Which reactant of photosynthesis is also involved in climate change?
choli [55]

Answer:

B. Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

First of all, let’s write out the photosynthesis equation to identify the products and reactants.

6CO2 + 6H2O + energy —> C6H12O6 + 6H2O

In a chemical equation with the arrow pointing right, the reactants are on the left and the products on the right.

In photosynthesis, the reactants, carbon dioxide, water, and energy, react to form the products of glucose (sugar) and oxygen.

Now, let’s look at the answer choices. We can automatically eliminate choices A (oxygen) and D (sugar) because they are products.

We are left with B (carbon dioxide) and C (water). Water isn’t really considered a major contributor to climate change. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the atmosphere, causing climate change.

Therefore, the best answer choice is B. Carbon dioxide
