Respiration, photosynthesis, and decay are all integral components of the carbon cycle. This cycle describes the continuous movement of carbon among the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. Photosynthesis captures carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, while respiration releases it back, and decay returns carbon to the soil, completing the cycle. Together, these processes help maintain the balance of carbon in the ecosystem.
What else can I help you with?
How do the processes of respiration photosynthesis and decay affect the carbon dioxide balance of the atmosphere?
Respiration, photosynthesis, and decay are key processes in the carbon cycle that regulate atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels. Photosynthesis by plants and other organisms absorbs CO2, converting it into organic matter and releasing oxygen, which helps lower atmospheric CO2. In contrast, respiration by animals and plants, along with the decay of organic matter, releases CO2 back into the atmosphere. Together, these processes create a dynamic balance, with photosynthesis generally offsetting the CO2 produced by respiration and decay under stable ecological conditions.
What process are part of the fast carbon cycle?
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis
Is photosynthesis the opposite of respiration?
Yes. respiration is the opposite reaction of photosynthesis.
What is reverse of photosynthesis cellular respiration?
The reverse of photosynthesis is cellular respiration.
What is true of the role of carbohydrates in photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Carbohydrates are made in photosynthesis. it is burning in the cellular respiration.
Is cellular respiration or photosynthesis a part of metabolism?
YES,
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are part of which cycle?
While photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, cellular respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. It is the released oxygen that is used by us and most other organisms for cellular respiration.
What process are part of the fast carbon cycle?
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis
Is mitochondria in photosynthesis or respiration?
It invoves in respiration. Specifically it is aerobic respiration
Is the Calvin cycle a part of cellular respiration?
No, the Calvin cycle is not a part of cellular respiration. It is a series of reactions that take place in the chloroplasts of plants during photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria and is the process by which cells generate energy from glucose.
How do photosynthesis and respiration take part in O2 cycle?
During photosynthesis O2 is released by the photolysis of water whereas in respiration O2 is consumed in the breakdown of substrate(reserve food).In simple words , Photosynthesis release O2 while respiration requires O2.
Does the nitrogen cycle involve photosyethis and respiration?
No. Nitrogen is required to make proteins (which DO the photosynthesis & the respiration), but is not classed as part of the cycles.
Is either photosynthesis of respiration controlled by enzymes?
respiration is but photosynthesis isn't.
Is photosynthesis the opposite of respiration?
Yes. respiration is the opposite reaction of photosynthesis.
What is reverse of photosynthesis cellular respiration?
The reverse of photosynthesis is cellular respiration.
What is true of the role of carbohydrates in photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Carbohydrates are made in photosynthesis. it is burning in the cellular respiration.
What is the name of the process that animals use to release energy?
Respiration; It is a part of Photosynthesis in plants
