How is carbon related to the flow of energy between the environment and organism?

∙ 7y ago
There are several different factors that control the primary productivity of energy and biomass flow. Energy flow is the amount of energy that moves through a food chain. The energy input, or energy that enters the ecosystem, is measured in Joules or calories. Accordingly, the energy flow is also called calorific flow. In the study of energy flow, ecologists try to quantify the importance of different species and feeding relationships.

How do organism add carbon to the atmosphere?
When a organism dies and decays it emits carbon dioxide.
What process in an organism is linked to the carbon cycle but not the nitrogen cycle?
Respiration in an organism is linked to the carbon cycle but not the nitrogen cycle.
What form of carbon do plants remove from the environment?
Plants remove Carbon Dioxide from the environment.
An organism that uses Carbon dioxide for its carbon needs would be called a?
Photoautotroph
How is carbon significant to a living organism?
All living organisms contain carbon.
How does most of the carbon in an organism body return to the environment after the organism dies?
deomposers
What allows the cell of an organism to use carbon from the environment?
Chloroplasts
Are carbon cycle related to herbivore?
Every living organism is related to the Carbon Cycle. Herbivores would be related to the carbon cycle because they breathe in air, and breathe out carbon dioxide (CO2).
How does most of the carbon in an organisms body return to the environment after the organism dies?
deomposers
What system are the lungs part of?
The lungs are part of the respiratory system. The respiratory system is involved in the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between an organism and the environment.
What is carbon-14 used for?
Carbon-dating. This is a process by which the proportion of carbon-14 in an organism is compared to the proportion know to be in the environment the carbon came from. By comparing the proportions, a scientist can determine the amount of time since the last replacement of the carbon-14, and thus give a rough time of how long ago the organism died.
What is the difference between nitrogen and carbon cycles?
The cycling of carbon between the atmosphere, land, water, and organisms. But the nitrogen is between the environment and organisms.
Which of the following processes allows the cells of an organism to use carbon from the environment?
Photosynthesis
How do organism add carbon to the atmosphere?
When a organism dies and decays it emits carbon dioxide.
How are heat sink and carbon sink related?
heat sink is when heat is absorbed into any type of environment, including the aquatic ecosystem; and carbon sink is when CO2 is absorbed into any type of environment including the terrestrial ecosystem.
Organism that gets its carbon from carbon dioxide?
Autotroph
What is a carbon films fossil?
It is an extremely thin coating of carbon on a rock that perseveres the delicate parts of an organism.
