Which of the following might happen if plants stop releasing oxygen into the atmosphere?

• A. Plants will be more healthier
• B. Number of plants will increase
• C. Number of animals will increase
• D. Animals will die from the lack of oxygen

Answer 1

The correct option is D Animals will die from the lack of oxygen

• Respiration in humans release $C{O}_2$ which is taken up by plants. If plants stop taking up $C{O}_2$ and stops releasing $O_2$, then plants will stop to convert sunlight into carbohydrates, and die.
• In a chain reaction, the death of plants' leads to animal death. Hence, Animals will die from the lack of Oxygen if plants stop releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.
• So, the correct answer is' Animals will die from the lack of Oxygen".
