Carbon fixation is the process by which carbon from carbon dioxide is incorporated into organic compounds.
Specifically, fixation describes a conversion from inorganic to organic. The process is carried out by living organisms. Organisms known as autotrophs - e.g., plants - will grow by conducting carbon-fixing photosynthesis. Others known as heterotrophs - e.g., animals - will grow by using an autotroph's fixed carbon.
Photosynthesis - Carbon dioxide to glucose

Carbon Fixation
carbon fixation
The process by which organic compounds are made from carbon dioxide and water and sunlight is called photosynthesis.
Carbonation, as in the bubbles trapped in a soda.
carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide Essentially, organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen.
Carbon dioxide is formed by the complete combustion of carbon itself or organic compounds.
Basically, all organic compounds have carbon and organic chemistry is the study of carbon based comounds. Inorganic generally do not contain carbon (with exceptions being carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, metal carbonates, metal bicarbonates and metal carbides).
Carbon fixation
Carbon Dioxide Fixation
The process by which organic compounds are made from carbon dioxide and water and sunlight is called photosynthesis.
Although Carbon is present in all organic compounds, carbon dioxide is not considered to be an organic compound. Nor are carbonates.
Carbonation, as in the bubbles trapped in a soda.
carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide Essentially, organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen.
All organic compounds contain carbon, but the reverse is not true: metal carbides, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, and carbonate minerals are not organic.
All organic compounds contain carbon. Carbon can make everything from carbon dioxide to chlorophyll.
Carbon dioxide is formed by the complete combustion of carbon itself or organic compounds.
