Fossilization is the process where dead organisms (animals and plants) get decomposed (broken up) by bacteria and fungi and then covered in layers of sediments (dirt etc). The pressure of the layers of sediment will result in the decomposed organism becoming a liquid (this takes millions of years). The liquid is crude oil (Gas and coal is also formed but they have different sources, Coal = plants and Gas is produced from the crude oil, basically the fumes from the oil). This is where the carbon cycle comes in. The fossilization has produced fossil fuels which we burn, which results in the release of Carbon Dioxide. This is one of the main contributors of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity releases carbon dioxide (CO2). This is extra CO2 to what is already in the carbon cycle.
The carbon cycle removes CO2 from the atmosphere, keeping the earth comfortably warm enough for life.
Fossil fuel use is overloading the carbon cycle and carbon dioxide is building up in the atmosphere causing global warming and climate change.

The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in transport and industry, as well as in the generation of electricity, releases long-hidden carbon dioxide. This puts an extra burden on the carbon cycle.
The role of fossil fuels in the carbon cycle is to produce carbon dioxide. Fossil fuels are considered to be the highest contributors to pollution of the environment.

It increases the carbon dioxide in the oceans. It adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
Fossil Fuels should be banned because when they are burnt they release atmospheric pollutants in the atmosphere, including Greenhouse gases such as Carbon Dioxide and Methane in the air. This has a huge role in global warming as it causes the earth to get warmer and warmer.
Bacteria causes fossil fuels to break down the plant and animals, they basically eat it.
buring fossil fuels contributes to gloadl warming, and acidic lakes due to acid rain, from the burning in oxygen. it also uses resources

The Carbon Cycle
It increases the carbon dioxide in the oceans. It adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
Fossil fuels are the most important aspect of their economies. Indonesia is a member of OPEC and Brunei has become very wealthy because of fossil fuels.

In the desert, the carbon cycle is a continuous and non-stop process. Plants and the atmosphere exchange carbon. Carbon is released when plants breathe and when organisms die. The cycle starts again when plants use the carbon that has been released.
Generation of organic matter and for oil extraction

Yes they do
organic compounds
Carbon dioxide gas is largely involved in the carbon cycle. Carbon mono-oxide also plays a very limited role in this cycle.
