Photosynthesis, respiration, volcanic eruption, decomposition
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

-> photosynthesis: the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.

-> respiration: a process in living organisms involving the production of energy, typically with the intake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide from the oxidation of complex organic substances.

-> volcanic eruption: Volcanic eruptions happen when lava and gas are discharged from a volcanic. Volcanic eruptions often cause temporary food shortages and volcanic ash landslides called Lahar. The most dangerous type of volcanic eruption is referred to as a 'glowing avalanche'.

-> decomposition: Dead organisms are broken down into smaller pieces by the process of decay.

Explanation:

Hope you get your answer correct!

Have a good day :D
