The carbon cycle represents the movement of carbon throughout our atmosphere. All living things are composed of carbon. The diagram below represents the carbon cycle.Carbon Cycle by NASA (CC BY 2.0)Which process involves taking inorganic carbon and converting it to organic carbon?Elimination ToolSelect one answerAPhotosynthesis.BCellular respiration.CThe burning of fossil fuels.DAnimal waste.

The carbon cycle describes how the element carbon moves through the Earth System. During the process known as , plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and create organic matter. Eventually, most of the organic matter will undergo , releasing carbon dioxide and methane gas to the atmosphere in the process called . Large quantities of carbon are transferred between the atmosphere and ocean through . Large quantities of carbon are also sequestered from the atmosphere and oceans over long periods of geologic time through the process of .

In the carbon cycle, carbon moves from the atmosphere -> plants and animals -> __________________ -> atmosphere

n the carbon cycle, CO2 is taken in by plants through the process of .

Describe how carbon is cycled through the biosphere. Your response should begin with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and include the contribution of plants, animals, and decomposers.

Determine the possible carbon pathways within the carbon cycle.
