Consider the following statements regarding the ways in which carbon dioxide is “fixed” and choose the correct option.
1. Green plants convert carbon dioxide into glucose in the presence of sunlight.
2. Marine animals use carbonates dissolved in sea water to make their shells.
Only Statement 1 is correct
Only Statement 2 is correct
Both 1 and 2 are correct
Neither 1 nor 2 is correct
