Do you believe humans breathe in CO2 to convert it to carbohydrates?
No, that statement is not false. Animals, specifically through the process of photosynthesis, convert carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere into carbohydrates. However, it is important to note that it is primarily plants, rather than animals, that perform photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a biochemical process by which plants, using energy from sunlight, convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (a carbohydrate) and oxygen. Animals, in turn, consume plants (or other animals that have consumed plants) to obtain carbohydrates, which they use as an energy source. So, while animals indirectly rely on the process of photosynthesis for carbohydrates, it is ultimately plants that directly convert CO2 into carbohydrates.
