Which of the following statements best describes the carbon atoms present in a seed-eating bird?
They were incorporated into organic molecules by plants, they were processed into sugars through photosynthesis, and they are ultimately derived from carbon dioxide.
What is an example of carbon moving from an inorganic compound to an organic compound in the carbon cycle?
Carbon Dioxide gets used by trees and plants in photosynthesis and is converted to glucose which is organic.
Carbon is such an important molecule for life because?
Carbon is the backbone for all organic molecules, like carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, and fats. Cells must have these compounds in order to survive and many cellular structures are composed of organic, carbon containing molecules.
How does the carbon-cycle work?
In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to the oxygen gas molecules and with the help of the sun and photosynthesis; the C02 gas is pulled from the air to make plant food from carbon molecules. Through food chains, the carbon in the plants moves into the animals that consume the plants, and animals eat other animals are getting the carbon from their food. In basic terms: carbon moves from plants to animals, and into the ground and reenter the atmosphere. The 02 gas is produced in the plants which release it into the air and consumers inhale it in; and/or the 02 gas in the atmosphere goes into the ground.
Is metal an organic compound?
yes
What is true about organic molecules?
There were incorporated into organic molecules by plants, they were processed into sugars through photosynthesis, and they are ultimately derived from carbon dioxide.
How are phosphorus incorporated into the organic molecules in plants and animals?
Flows out of water into plants that are consumed by animals

What is the main process in plants that incorporates carbon into organic molecules?
photosynthesis
How are phosphates incorporated into the organic molecules in plants and molecules?
They stab the plant/animal until there is a big enough hole to squirm through. .
Where do plants get the energy to make organic molecules?
By converting energy into molecules. We then eat the plant which carries the molecules of energy. It is organic because its a plant. I'm prerty sure this is correct but if it is not, please correct me!
How are phosphates incorporated into the organic molecules and plants and animals?
They stab the plant/animal until there is a big enough hole to squirm through. .
What do plants use in photosynthesis to make carbon-containting molecules?
During photosynthesis the plants use ribulose 1, 5-diphosphate and Carbon dioxide to make carbon containing organic compounds.
Organism that makes organic carbon molecules from carbon dioxide using energy from chemical reactions?
Autotrophic plants. You've described photosynthesis, basically.
How are phosphates incorporated into the organic molecules and aquatic plants and animals?
The scales and bones of bony fish contain phosphorus. As is the case on land, primary producers in the ocean incorporate phosphates into organic compounds.

Where do plants get the carbon they use to make organic molecules?
carbon fixed in photosynthesis
