How is carbon cycled from the atmosphere through producers and consumers?
Carbon is cycled from the atmosphere to producers (plants) through photosynthesis, where they take in carbon dioxide to produce glucose. Consumers then consume these plants, obtaining carbon by eating them. When consumers respire or decompose, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Do consumers contain chloroplast?
Consumers do not have chloroplasts.They get carbon from other organisms.
Are animals primary consumers of carbon dioxide?
No, animals are not primary consumers of carbon dioxide. Plants are the primary consumers of carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis. Animals, on the other hand, release carbon dioxide through respiration.
In the global carbon cycle carbon flows from consumers to producers in the form of?
In the global carbon cycle, carbon flows from consumers to producers in the form of organic compounds, such as glucose, through processes like photosynthesis. Consumers obtain carbon by consuming organic matter produced by producers, and this carbon is then released back into the environment through processes like respiration and decomposition.
Where do primery consumers get their carbon from?
From plant material
How does carbon from the nonliving environment become a part of living organisms?
Carbon enters living things through photosynthesis because producers (plants and other photosynthesizing organisms) use carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and the compounds needed to form their structures. First order consumers eat the plants which gives the carbon to them, and then other consumers eat them, and so on. Then through decomposition, it is given to the soil, then the plants, and it all repeats itself.
What do consumers need to to survive?
Consumers need producers to survive
Where do primary consumers get there carbon from?
Primary consumers get their carbon from the plants and other autotrophic organisms that they consume as food. These plants convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into organic compounds through photosynthesis, which then gets passed on to the primary consumers when they eat the plant material.
Is carbon monoxide needed for a fire?
No. It is not needed. Carbon monoxide is a common by-product of burning carbon or carbon-containing compounds.
Is carbon monoxide in frozen fish harmful to consumers?
No
What producers and consumers give off?
carbon dioxide
How does the carbon cycle flow to producers to consumers?
Producers take in carbon dioxide in its gaseous form from the air during the process of photosynthesis, and use the carbon from the CO2 to create food molecules such as sugars and starches. When these producers are eaten by heterotrophs, they also take in the carbon that is contained in the food molecules that were created by the plants. Later, while breaking down the food molecules, the consumers release CO2 and water as waste products. When these consumers die, the decomposers break down the heterotroph and return the carbon compounds back to the soil.
