Carbon dioxide is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis, which converts it into organic carbon compounds. When plants die or are eaten by animals, the carbon is transferred to the soil through decomposition. Microorganisms break down the organic matter, releasing carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. This carbon cycle continues as plants absorb carbon dioxide for photosynthesis.
Yes, soil can release carbon dioxide through processes such as microbial respiration and decomposition of organic matter. This contribution to atmospheric carbon dioxide is part of the carbon cycle.
Yes because trees and plants absorb carbon dioxide and store the carbon.
Yes, soil bacteria release carbon dioxide into the environment through the process of respiration.
Carbon enters the soil through a process called carbon sequestration, where plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and store it in their tissues. When plants die and decompose, the carbon is released into the soil. Additionally, organic matter such as dead leaves and roots also contribute to carbon in the soil. Microorganisms in the soil break down this organic matter through decomposition, releasing carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. This cycle of carbon transfer between plants, soil, and the atmosphere is known as the carbon cycle.

Yes, I think soil can emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The main parts of the carbon cycle include photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and combustion. Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, converting it into organic compounds in plants. Respiration releases carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. Decomposition breaks down organic matter and releases carbon back into the soil. Combustion releases carbon dioxide when organic material is burned.
The carbon cycle in soil plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of carbon in the environment. Soil acts as a storage reservoir for carbon, absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through plant photosynthesis and storing it in organic matter. This stored carbon can be released back into the atmosphere through processes like decomposition and respiration. By cycling carbon through the soil, it helps regulate the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which is important for maintaining a stable climate and overall balance of carbon in the environment.
True. Scavengers break down the organic matter from dead organisms, releasing carbon compounds back into the soil through their waste products and decomposing bodies. Some carbon is also released as carbon dioxide into the air during the decomposition process.
No they can't. They can only obtain carbon dioxide from the leaves through the gas exchange at the stoma (singular: stomata). However, plants can get water, ions, and mineral salts from the soil.
When rainwater reacts with carbon dioxide in the soil, it forms carbonic acid. This weak acid can further contribute to the weathering of rocks and minerals in the soil.
