You can stop tree roots from growing back by removing the tree roots fully or by drilling holes into the tree roots and pouring boiling water over the tree roots which will shock the tree roots nervous system and cause them to die out.

Tree roots do not continue to grow once the tree is cut down.

Once you cut a tree down the tree roots cannot grow any longer because the leaves of the tree are necessary to provide the tree the needed fuel and food for root growth.

Trees will sometimes grow back if cut in half although not always.

Sometimes a tree will start to grow back branches out of the cut tree stomach or start to grow a new tree from the top of the tree stump.

When pruned properly, removed tree branches will not grow back.

Instead, the tree will grow what looks like a callous over the pruning cut, which helps protect the tree from decay and infection.

Because trees heal all on their own, you don't have to use a pruning sealer!

The tree that gives the most oxygen is the Pine Tree.

Pine Trees give off the most oxygen although they have a low leaf area index.

Other trees that give the most oxygen are Douglas Fir, Spruce, True Fir, beech, maple trees and oak as well as aspen trees.

Phytoplankton also produces oxygen and produces more oxygen than trees.

Between 50 percent to 80 percent of oxygen that is produced on earth comes from the ocean and most of that oxygen is produced by phytoplankton.

Some fun facts about phytoplankton are.

Phytoplankton are responsible for cloud formation.
Phytoplankton are a type of algae.
Phytoplankton help in absorbing of carbon emission.
Phytoplankton produce half of the world's oxygen.
And some types of phytoplankton are also bioluminescent.

If all the phytoplankton are eliminated from a pond the fish and aquatic life in the pond would quickly die off.

If there's no phytoplankton in the pond there will also be no oxygen for the fish and so only Anaerobic bacteria will be able to grow in the pond.

Eliminating phytoplankton from a ponds ecosystem will destroy the ponds ecosystem completely and restrict the flow of energy.

The things that mainly feed on phytoplankton include crustaceans, zooplankton and small fish.

Phytoplankton is an algae that is a microscopic marine algae which provides food for a wide range of sea creatures in a balanced ecosystem.

The food that phytoplankton eat is food they produce through the process of photosynthesis.

Phytoplankton convert sunlight into energy and use the converted energy to form sugar called glucose which they then store as a source of nutrients.

Life on earth would be affected terribly if phytoplankton disappeared as the entire aquatic system would collapse and the oxygen on earth would also decrease.

Through photosynthesis, phytoplankton use sunlight, nutrients, carbon dioxide, and water to produce oxygen and nutrients for other organisms.

With 71% of the Earth covered by the ocean, phytoplankton are responsible for producing up to 50% of the oxygen we breathe.

If all of the phytoplankton died there would be a complete collapse of our aquatic ecosystem which would also increase levels of carbon in the air and also accelerate climate change much faster and further.

The loss of phytoplankton would be a huge problem for marine food chains because every creature in the ocean either eats phytoplankton or eats other organisms that depend on it.

If the numbers of phytoplankton start to decrease, the populations of these species would drop as well.

Phytoplankton is used as a supplement for humans as well as food for sea creatures and also for the base of several aquatic food webs and to keep a balanced ecosystem.

Phytoplankton is worth taking because of it's ability to strengthen your cell membranes and also induce cell regeneration.

Phytoplankton is high in Vitamin E, bioflavonoids, beta-Carotene and alanine which also helps strengthen and improve your immune system.

The side effects of taking phytoplankton are nausea, burping, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, stomach pain or stomach discomfort, joint pain and heartburn.

Phytoplankton does expire and has a shelf life of around 12 months.

Phytoplankton will also settle out of suspension and also die if left packed down on the bottom too long.

Phytoplankton does not need to be refrigerated as it contains preserving agents which prevent the phytoplankton from going bad.
