    Answer: 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.
