Animals produce carbon dioxide gas through respiration. This process involves taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide as a byproduct, therefore putting carbon back into the atmosphere.
Carbon exists as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis. All food chains start with plants so herbivores get carbon by eating plants and carnivores get carbon by eating herbivores.
Animals and people receive carbon primarily through the food they consume. Plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and convert it into carbohydrates, which are then consumed by animals. The carbon is then transferred through the food chain as animals eat plants or other animals.
When animals exhale, they release a gas called Carbon Dioxide (CO2) which can be lethal to animals if the gas is present in large quantities. Through the process of photosynthesis plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen as a byproduct. This helps animals because they need oxygen in order to breathe.
During the process of photosynthesis release oxygen and animals (we) inhale oxygen and release carbondioxide. This is how plants and animals depend on each other by symbiosys. Hope that helps...

It can regulate carbon because plants need it to live.
One of Earth's largest carbon sinks is the ocean. The ocean absorbs a significant amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, storing it in marine plants, animals, and sediments. This helps regulate the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Carbon Cycle.
Our use of carbon stores releases stored carbon dioxide into the atmosphere through activities like deforestation and burning fossil fuels. This increases the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming. Reducing our reliance on these carbon stores can help mitigate these effects.
Respiration, breathing, has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This is part of the natural carbon cycle. Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases carbon dioxide that has been hidden away for millions of years. This extra gas is increasing in the atmosphere.
Producers, such as plants, remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis, converting it into organic carbon. This helps regulate the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. However, deforestation and land-use changes can release stored carbon back into the atmosphere, contributing to an increase in carbon dioxide levels and impacting the carbon cycle.

No, the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere is much greater than the amount of carbon dioxide. The current levels of carbon dioxide are approximately 0.04% of the atmosphere, while oxygen levels are around 21%.
