Rocky's class recently got pet turtles. When putting together the habitat, decomposers were added to the soil, as well as some smaller organisms that turtles eat. Some students wanted to get "fake" plants for the terrarium, but Rocky insisted that this would negatively affect the carbon and oxygen cycles.

Which of the following reasons support why Rocky is correct?

Group of answer choices

A) Carbon won't be removed from the air.

B) Photosynthesis won't occur.

C) The turtles won't be able to breathe.

D) All of these are correct.

Will mark as brainliest if correct

It is clear that the terrarium is sealed or not, if it is open to the outside environment or not. Considering it sealed and no outer interaction, then if a fake plant to this terrarium then there will be no photosynthesis will take place as there are no green plants to capture the sunlight and make glucose and no way to release oxygen for the other organisms.

If in this no green plants then the removal of CO2 will not be possible. Higher amount of carbon and without oxygen turtles would not be able to survive even though there is food for them.
