All of the following are likely effects of deforestation except

Multiple Choice
A. increased runoff into rivers and streams.
B. increased rate of soil erosion.
C. increased rate at which carbon dioxide is extracted out of the atmosphere.
D. increased rate of destruction of plant and animal habitats.

Deforestation decreases (not increases) the rate at which carbon dioxide is extracted from the atmosphere.

Forests act as sinks for carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis. Thus, they extract (through fixation) the gas from the atmosphere.

Deforestation leads to the removal of forest layers and the conversion of the land to non-forest uses.

When this happens, lesser carbon dioxide is extracted from the atmosphere because the rate of photosynthesis (carbon dioxide fixation) would reduce.

Option C) increased rate at which carbon dioxide is extracted out of the atmosphere

Explanation:

Deforestation refers to the falling of trees. Now, since plants including trees rely on the atmosphere for their supply of carbon dioxide (CO2) to make food, their absence would rather make more carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere.

Thus, increased rate of carbon dioxide extraction from the atmosphere is not an effect of deforestation.
