<span>I am a Carbon atom and I took birth in the air. I had spend a memorable time in a molecule and there were two very nice oxygen atoms too. I just got into the air and I am very excited that I had my complete incoming box of electrons. I am a carbon atom and I have six electrons. Right now I am in a carbon dioxide molecule and I am just wondering in air. While i was enjoying my journey I waved to my friends like oxygen gas which is a molecule of two oxygen atoms.Oxygen atom is my best friend. I’ve heard stories of becoming solids and many different things when i was too young, but now I just like the air and I am loving it.</span>

Answer:

I am carbon atom denoted by a symbol C and  my atomic number is 6.  I am the member of group 14 in the periodic table. I am tetravalent having 4 electrons to form covalent chemical bond with other atoms. I live in air along with two molecules of oxygen as carbon dioxide(CO₂).  

Fixation: algea and terrestrial green plants take me as carbon dioxide from the external environment and convert me into polysacchride as their food in the process of photosynthesis.

Respiration: the consumers obtain the food prepared by the plants and obtain energy from it and again release me in the form of carbon dioxide.

Decomposition: in the decomposition process the animal, plant and human dead and decaying waste is converted from highly complex molecules to less complex molecules, i get produced along with two oxygen molecules (CO₂) in this process.

Fossil fuels: burning of fossil fuels like coal and petroleum leads to again my release as CO₂.

What would happen if there was no condensation stage in the water cycle
BigorU [14]

Condensation is the process by which water vapor is changed back into liquid water. Condensation is very important to our weather and climate because it is what is responsible for cloud formation.

Without clouds, we would not get to the third phase, called precipitation, which we will talk about in a minute. Clouds form when water vapor condenses around small particles, like bits of dust or smoke in the air. Depending on the size of the drops, these particles may or may not be visible. Even on a clear, cloudless day, water vapor is always present in the atmosphere, but it does vary in amounts. We know it is present on a very humid day; it often feels like we need to swim through the air! Fog is condensation near the ground.

<span>Fog forms when moist warmer air comes in contact with cooler air near the surface. Just like when the bathroom mirror gets all foggy during a shower because of condensation, fog also forms because of this warm air contacting a cooler air mass. The fog forms drops in the air rather than on the surface of your mirror.</span>Clouds will be useless since they will not carry and drop water.
