Why is the carbon cycle important to your ecosystem?
Whatever plants that you have in your ecosystem need carbon dioxide so that they can complete the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis works hand in hand with Cellular Respiration, which is the process that all humans and animals go through in order to survive.
How is the carbon cycle related to a food web?
Carbon dioxide is used by plants to form glucose, which is like special food that plants make for themselves using light energy from the sun, water, and carbon dioxide (CO2). They get this carbon dioxide from organisms that use respiration instead of photosynthesis. During respiration, cells take in oxygen, and CO2 is left as an end product. The plants then use this carbon dioxide during photosynthesis with an end product of oxygen. It goes on and on in a never ending carbon cycle. Without plants there would be no animals, and if their were too many plants or too many animals that wouldn't work in a food chain either. Sorry if THAT doesn't answer your question. :)
