Question
Solar radiation travels through the earth's atmosphere and warms the planet's surface. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere reabsorb the heat and warm the planet. The amounts of greenhouse gases have been increasing over the past century, causing the earth's surface temperature to increase. This gradual temperature change is thought to have many negative environmental consequences.
Select which of these might be a POSITIVE effect of the increase in carbon dioxide levels?
Responses
A rise in sea levelsrise in sea levels
B decrease in plant growthdecrease in plant growth
C increase in plant growthincrease in plant growth
D increased melting of ice caps

This model shows the process of photosynthesis. The Law of Conservation of Mass reminds us that matter is neither created nor destroyed, so the atoms present in the reactants of photosynthesis are still present in the products of photosynthesis. Which of these equations accurately portrays this fact?
