Carbon and oxygen cycles interact to keep animals alive because animals use the oxygen cycle to realease the energy they make and
animals use carbon cycles to produce sugars, animals and organisms
break down these sugars to obtain energy, they produce water and carbon dioxide hope this helped!!!!

∙ 6y agoAnimals take in the oxygen given off by the plants and then exhale carbondoixide and the plants take that in and the cycle continues...

∙ 11y agoplants and animals depend on the carbon dioxide -oxygen cycle bercause their is other stuff in the cycle that can help them live.

∙ 11y agoplants absorb carbon dioxide, which they break down into carbon and oxygen through photosynthesis. Animals absorb oxygen (through our lungs) and expel carbon dioxide.

How does plants and animals use carbon dioxide and oxygen in different ways?
Plants obtain carbon from the atmosphere by breaking CO2 apart and releasing the oxygen during photosynthesis. Animals eat the plants, excrete an undigested portion of the carbon, and exhale the rest through respiration of the carbon with atmospheric oxygen (or in the case of marine animals--oxygen dissolved in water).
Which are the five cycles?
The: Rock Cycle Water Cycle Nitrogen Cycle Oxygen Cycle Carbon Cycle
Which two biogeochemical cycles depend directly on photosynthesis?
The two biogeochemical cycles that depend directly on photosynthesis are the oxygen cycle and the carbon cycle. Photosynthesis is the driving force between these two cycles.
How does oxygen cycle through an ecosystem?
Carbon Dioxide is absorbed by plants for use in photosynthesis to make sugars. During the process of photosynthesis, some oxygen is made as a byproduct. This oxygen is then inhaled by animals. Animals exchange oxygen in the air for carbon dioxide. Then the cycle starts over again.
What does respiration make?
animals: carbon dioxide plants: oxygen
What two carbon compounds are recycled in the carbon and oxygen cycles?
carbon dioxide and sugar
Which two carbon compounds are recycled in the carbon and oxygen cycles?
Carbon dioxide and sugar
What are the biogeochemical cycle?
Carbon, Nitrogen, Water and Oxygen Cycles.
How might all the producers being dead effect the carbon oxygen nitrogen cycles?
how how might all the producers being dead in the ecosystem effect the carbon oxygen nitrogen cycles
What are the three cycles that move through the ecosystem?
Oxygen, energy, and reproduction.
How do plants and animals mantain the level of oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals breathe in oxygen and let out carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
Why are carbon and oxygen cycles so close together?
Well we breath in oxygen, and release co2, which plants breath in then release oxygen. thus they are almost the same cycles
How are the carbon oxygen and nitrogen cycles vital to sustaining life on earth?
Carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen are vital components of life on Earth
What is the important of plant in oxygen cycles?
Plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen through photosynthesis.
Why do the water and nitrogen and carbon dioxide and oxygen cycles not occur on the moon?
Because there no oxygen on the moon.
What are the three most important nutrient cycles?
Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen
What is oxygen-carbon dioxide cycles?
the carbon dioxide oxygen cycle is how a human breathes out carbon dioxide and it goes to a plant and the plant breathes out oxygen and it goes to the human and that's how they get energy
