Question

Analyze the given diagram of the carbon cycle below. An image of carbon cycle is shown. The sun, a cloud, two trees, one towards left and the other towards right, an animal, lake, and a factory are included. Arrow A points from the sun to the left tree. Arrow B points from the air above the clouds to the left tree. Arrow C points from the factory towards the air above the clouds. Arrow D points from the air to the lake labeled Carbonates in Water. Arrow E points from the label Dead Organism under the animal to label Fossils and Fossil Fuels. Arrow F points from the right tree to the air. Part 1: Which process does arrow A represent? Part 2: Which type of energy transformation does arrow A represent? Part 3: Justify why this process is a recycling of carbon in the carbon cycle.
