It's part of the Carbon Cycle. By humans breathing in oxygen, your body stores complex carbohydrates internelly as a source of energy before converting the carbon back to Co2, via aerobic respiration.
Carbon is cycled from the atmosphere to producers (plants) through photosynthesis, where they take in carbon dioxide to produce glucose. Consumers then consume these plants, obtaining carbon by eating them. When consumers respire or decompose, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Carbon is stored in the atmosphere primarily as carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule.
An example of carbon moving from the atmosphere to the hydrosphere is when carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere dissolves into the oceans. This process, known as carbon sequestration, helps regulate the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and directly impacts the ocean's acidity levels.
In the carbon cycle, a carbon source releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, while a carbon sink absorbs and stores carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Carbon can enter the atmosphere. It moves in and out of the atmosphere through the earth's regular carbon cycle.What it can not do is enter as pure carbon. Carbon is a solid in it's natural state and solids fall out of our atmosphere. Carbon must mix with a gas, such as oxygen, to create another gas, carbon dioxide, to enter the atmosphere.
Most of the carbon in the atmosphere is in the form of carbon dioxide, (CO2) gas.
Carbon is removed from the atmosphere in some ways. For example, plants and trees eliminate carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. Carbon will be released into the atmosphere when an organism dies.
Carbon Cycle.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule in which carbon is found in the Earth's atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide rises in the atmosphere.
The carbon cycle
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule that carries most of the carbon in the atmosphere.
Carbon is cycled from the atmosphere to producers (plants) through photosynthesis, where they take in carbon dioxide to produce glucose. Consumers then consume these plants, obtaining carbon by eating them. When consumers respire or decompose, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
It is not fixed in the atmosphere. It moves as part of the carbon cycle in and out of the oceans, the atmosphere and the land.
Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

List the compounds so I can answer your question. I would imagine Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide would be the first 2.
