Very little active part but rocks do provide minerals and they can store the heat from the sun during the day and release it at night thereby providing some small role.

Which item is a carbon sink and not part of the carbon cycle?
Carbon found within limestone rocks.
List four important biogeochemical processes that cycle nutrients?
The Water Cycle, The Carbon and Oxygen Cycle, The Nitrogen Cycle, and The Phosphorus Cycle.
Why does the carbon cycle slow during winter?
The carbon cycle is the set of biogeochemical processes by which carbon undergoes chemical reactions, changes form, and moves through different reservoirs on earth, including living organisms.The geological component of the carbon cycle is driven by plate tectonics and includes processes like volcanic eruptions and burial of carbon-rich sediments on the ocean floor.The biological component of the carbon cycle is driven by respirationand photosynthesis by living organisms.Humans influence the global carbon cycle in several ways, but primarily through burning fossil fuels.
In what ways do plants play a role in the water cycle?
Plants take carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and turn it into Oxygen (O).
How is a butlers garter snake directly affected by carbon cycle and water cycle?
makes it depressed
What is the role of living organisms in the carbon cycle?
Animal's role in the carbon cycle is the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen between plants. Plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, and the byproduct is oxygen that all living things need to live. Then animals breath out carbon dioxide to be in taken by plants.
What role do rock within the carbon cycle?
After many years, as rocks are eroded, gases trapped in them will be released into the atmosphere so in a way rocks are "storage rooms" for gases just as our Earth is.
Which item is a carbon sink and not part of the carbon cycle?
Carbon found within limestone rocks.
Is the role of fossil fuels in the carbon cycle?
The role of fossil fuels in the carbon cycle is to produce carbon dioxide. Fossil fuels are considered to be the highest contributors to pollution of the environment.
Do humans have a role in the carbon cycle?
Yes they do
What is role of primary producers in the carbon carbon cycle?
organic compounds
What gas is involved in the carbon cycle?
Carbon dioxide gas is largely involved in the carbon cycle. Carbon mono-oxide also plays a very limited role in this cycle.
What role does forest fire play in its carbon cycle?
the cycle of life. the trees get carbon dioxide and make oxygen. if we didn't have carbon we be dead .
What role does the lion play in the carbon cycle?
It eats carbon. it eats everything
What important role do fungi play in the environment?
They play an important role in the carbon cycle They play an important role in the carbon cycle
What is the role of producers in the carbon cycle?
organic compounds
What is the role of secondary producer in the carbon cycle?
it eats
