Question

Let's bring what you have learned about the carbon cycle, photosynthesis, and cellular respiration and show how they are connected/work together in an ecosystem. Play the role of a carbon atom in an ecosystem. Start with the production, how are you made? And then explain how you transform through different processes. Make sure to include your role in the carbon cycle, photosynthesis, and cellular respiration. There is no set length, as long as you explain the role of carbon in each process.

Answer 1

Answer:

Plants absorb carbondioxide gas from atmosphere whereas respiration releases carbondioxide .

Explanation:

Carbon is present in the atmosphere in the form of carbondioxide gas which is used by the plants in the process of photosynthesis. Plants takes carbondioxide gas from the surrounding air through small openings called stomata and made their own food while on the other hand, carbondioxide gas is released from the body of living organisms in the process of cellular respiration.  In cellular respiration, food is broken down with the help of oxygen forming water, carbondioxide gas and energy in the form of ATP molecules.
