Nadya [2.5K]
Well, the carbon cycle provides an example of matter cycling and energy flow in ecosystems. Photosynthesis, digestion of plant matter, respiration, and decomposition are important components of the carbon cycle, in which carbon is exchanged between the biosphere, atmosphere, oceans, and geosphere through chemical, physical, geological, and biological processes.

Help me please,Thanks
BigorU [14]
Okay. About 71% of the Earth's surface is water. And salt water holds about 96.5% of all the Earth's water. The remaining 3% of freshwater is found in Glaciers and ice caps making it difficult to use because it is frozen. Other places freshwater can be found is: Lakes, swamps, rivers and the atmosphere. I hope this helps!
