The synthesis of organic compounds from carbon dioxide such as in photosynthesis?

In photosynthesis, plants use the energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process involves a series of enzymatic reactions in chloroplasts, where carbon dioxide is reduced and incorporated into organic compounds through the Calvin cycle. This synthesis of organic compounds provides energy for the plant and serves as the basis for the food chain.

How is carbon dioxide formed from a mixture of sewage microorganisms and air?

In a sewage treatment process, microorganisms break down organic matter present in the sewage through respiration. As they respire, they release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. This carbon dioxide is formed when the organic compounds in the sewage are broken down and their carbon content is released into the environment as CO2.
