Question

An artificial biosphere is an enclosed area that contains the elements necessary for human life to exist. Suppose scientists want to develop an artificial biosphere on a new planet. The new planet has an atmosphere that is 96% carbon dioxide with only trace amounts of oxygen. What could humans do to make enough oxygen to survive? Explain your answer.​

Answer 1

To make enough oxygen to survive in an artificial biosphere on a new planet with an atmosphere that is 96% carbon dioxide and trace amounts of oxygen, humans would need to engage in a process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and some microorganisms convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of glucose, while simultaneously releasing oxygen gas as a byproduct.

In order to implement photosynthesis on the new planet, humans would need to cultivate plants and microorganisms that are capable of surviving in the extreme conditions of the new planet's atmosphere. These organisms would need to be able to tolerate high levels of carbon dioxide and low levels of oxygen while also being able to thrive in the artificial biosphere's enclosed environment.

The cultivation of plants and microorganisms capable of photosynthesis would require a carefully controlled environment with the appropriate levels of light, temperature, and nutrients. It would also require a system for regulating the levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the atmosphere of the artificial biosphere to ensure that the plants and microorganisms have access to the necessary gases for photosynthesis.

Once established, the plants and microorganisms would convert the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into oxygen, providing a sustainable source of breathable air for the human inhabitants of the artificial biosphere.

Answer 2

Answer: humans would need an A.I. to artificially create more than enough oxygen to survive

Explanation: well if the planet is 96% carbon dioxide and 4% oxygen then in the matter of days they would get really sick from breathing in excess carbon dioxide. so they would need an A.I to somehow make enough oxygen needed for everyone in the planet to survive, and they also wouldn't be able to drink water since there is only 4% of water because water is made of one oxygen atom and 2 hydrogen atoms.
