During the carbon cycle in what form are carbon atoms generally returned to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide gas.
The carbon cycle works in conjunction with what?
The carbon cycle is closely related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon is exchanged from the atmosphere (in the form of CO2) into the biosphere (in the form of glucose).
What do the word parts in biogeochemical cycle mean?
The biogeochemical cycle refers to the cycling of elements by the geosphere as well as by the biosphere. For example, there is a biological carbon cycle whereby carbon is sequestered by plants in the form of sugars as well as a geochemical cycle whereby carbon is sequestered by minerals in the form of carbonates.
How does carbon enter the biotic parts of the biosphere during the carbon cycle?
Carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, enters living things from the nonliving environment when plants and other producers photosynthesize. Carbon returns to the environment when living things respire, are decomposed, or are burned (combustion).
What happens to a six-carbon molecule of glucose during glycolysis?
enzyme-assisted anaerobic process that breaks down one six-carbon molecule of glucose to two three-carbon pyruvates
In the global carbon cycle carbon flows from consumers to producers in the form of?
carbon dioxide
How does a rabbit return carbon back into the cycle?
It breathes out carbon in a form of carbon dioxide.
Is the carbon cycle closely related to?
The carbon cycle is closely related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon is exchanged from the atmosphere (in the form of CO2) into the biosphere (in the form of glucose).
How do you describe the carbon cycle?
The two processes of the carbon cycle are photosynthesis and cellular respiration. In photosynthesis carbon from carbon dioxide is fixed into carbohydrates. In cellular respiration, carbohydrates are broken down to form ATP and carbon in the form of carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.
What processes does not occur as an acetic acid subunit enters the mitochondrion and progresses around one complete circuit of the Kreb's cycle?
One molecule of oxygen is combined with carbon to form carbon dioxide.
During the carbon cycle in what form are carbon atoms generally returned to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide gas.
The carbon cycle works in conjunction with what?
The carbon cycle is closely related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon is exchanged from the atmosphere (in the form of CO2) into the biosphere (in the form of glucose).
Where in the carbon cycle do you see carbon and oxygen liked?
In the atmosphere, they are attached in the form of gaseous carbon dioxide (CO2).
What impact do insects and animals have ont the carbon cycle?
Animals and insects form a part of the carbon cycle, eating and breathing, and then releasing the carbon as gas and waste.
What do the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration form?
The Processes Of Photosynthesis And Cellular Respiration Form Carbon Dioxide-Oxygen Cycle
What do the word parts in biogeochemical cycle mean?
The biogeochemical cycle refers to the cycling of elements by the geosphere as well as by the biosphere. For example, there is a biological carbon cycle whereby carbon is sequestered by plants in the form of sugars as well as a geochemical cycle whereby carbon is sequestered by minerals in the form of carbonates.
What does photosynthetic bacteria have to do with the carbon cycle?
Photosynthetic bacteria require CO2 for making food in the form of starch through photosynthesis and this CO2 or carbon dioxide is produced as a result of the carbon cycle.
