Topic #2: Movement of Carbon How does carbon move through the carbon cycle? Why should we care?

How is Carbon Cycled Through an Ecosystem? Plants take in carbon for photosynthesis Animals obtain carbon by eating plants Plants and animals die and return carbon to the ground Living things breathe out carbon dioxide Carbon is emitted by the burning of fossil fuels (like coal, petroleum & natural gas) The ocean is a carbon sink, so it becomes dissolved in seawater

Brain Pop: The Carbon Cycle What causes an imbalance in the amount of carbon in the atmosphere?

Question #1: Complete burning of plant material returns carbon primarily to the A. herbivores B. water C. vegetation D. atmosphere

Question #2: The framework of organic molecules essential to all organisms is composed mainly of carbon atoms. Which processes are involved in the cycling of carbon within an environment? A. photosynthesis and respiration B. evaporation and condensation C. transcription and translation D. diffusion and transpiration
