Carbon is the second most abundant atom in the body (the first is oxygen). All organic things are comprised of carbon. Now, taking as true the old maxim that matter cannot be created or destroyed, it follows that the body's primary source of carbon is food - after all, that's the only major organic matter entering the body. Since all organic (i.e. living) things are comprised of carbon, and our food is all from living matter (unless you happen to eat rocks, which I doubt), this means that our meals provide more or less all of our carbon intake.

What is a carbon deficiency on the human body?
carbon solutions in your body means that there is carbon in your body
Does The amount of radioactive carbon in your body increases at the time of death?
The amount of radioactive carbon in the body is fixed at the time of death. After death, the carbon would the begin to decay.
When you exhale what gas does your body get rid off?
When you breathe out, your body gets rid of Carbon Dioxide (CO2).
Where is carbon in your body?
The great majority of chemical substances in your body, such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates etc., contain carbon. The main exception is water, which contains no carbon.
What brings air into the body and removes carbon dioxide?
Carbon Dioxide
Where does a plant acquire carbon dioxide for photosynthesis?
Plants acquire carbon dioxide for photosynthesis from the air through tiny pores on their leaves called stomata.
How do plants acquire carbon dioxide for the process of photosynthesis?
Plants acquire carbon dioxide for photosynthesis through tiny openings on their leaves called stomata. These stomata allow carbon dioxide from the air to enter the plant and be used in the process of photosynthesis.
How do plants acquire the carbon dioxide necessary for photosynthesis?
Plants acquire carbon dioxide necessary for photosynthesis through tiny openings on their leaves called stomata. These stomata allow carbon dioxide to enter the plant and be used in the process of photosynthesis.
What is a carbon deficiency on the human body?

For what purpose do plants acquire carbon dioxide?
to bind it into sugars that store energy
What can your body acquire when you walk across the carpet?
Energy
How does your body acquire the oxygen the cell in your body need to function?
Its cellular respiration, which is the opposite of photo synthesis, which takes in oxygen through the nose or mouth then through the trachea to the lungs which extracts oxygen and sends it into the blood stream and then excretes carbon dioxide (exhale)
Can carbon be found in the human body?
It can be but it can not be pure carbon
How is carbon dioxide removed from the body?
Carbon dioxide is removed from the body through a process called respiration. When we breathe, we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is carried in the blood to the lungs, where it is then exhaled out of the body.
Why do you have to move your body?
If you do not move , it means that you do not acquire energy. Therefore, you move to live.
What is added to the body removed from the body with every breath?
Carbon dioxide
Does The amount of radioactive carbon in your body increases at the time of death?
The amount of radioactive carbon in the body is fixed at the time of death. After death, the carbon would the begin to decay.
