Which process is most responsible for the increase in early Earth’s atmospheric oxygen levels?
The answer is photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis
occurs in the leaves of green plants. During photosynthesis, carbon
dioxide and water are converted into using the energy of
sunlight to glucose and oxygen. After great evolution of plants, the photosynthetic rate was increased. More plants mean more oxygen produced in the process of photosynthesis. Thus, photosynthesis is most responsible for the increase in early Earth’s atmospheric oxygen levels.
Answer: B). Photosynthesis
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
