Carbon is released into the atmosphere only during the burning of fossil fuels

Explanation:

During the process of fuel burning, carbon is released in the atmosphere. The human invented power plants, factories, cars and other vehicles releases carbon in the form of carbon di-oxide in atmosphere.

However, the cellular respiration is similar to that of fuel burning as it is too a combustion process. But the carbon produced in this process fuels the inner cellular activities rather than releasing it in the atmosphere.

In cellular respiration, glucose is broken down by reacting it with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. I’m fossil fuels, methane or any different type of fuel is combusted using oxygen. The combustion of glucose happens in cellular respiration.

Answer:

At convergent plate boundaries, oceanic crust is often forced down into the mantle where it begins to melt. Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed.
