Study Notes

The Carbon Cycle

Carbon is transferred through various stages to form a complete cycle.
Plants use photosynthesis to transform energy from the sun into organic carbon
Organic carbon is transferred underground when plants and animals that feed off them die and decay
Some of this carbon is trapped underground in the form of fossils and fossil fuels
Carbon is also released back into the atmosphere through various means

The Stages of the Carbon Cycle

Photosynthesis: Plants use energy from the sun to transform carbon dioxide into organic carbon.
Decomposition: When organisms die and decay, organic carbon is transferred to the soil.
Fossil Fuel Formation: Over millions of years, organic matter buried underground is transformed into fossil fuels, trapping carbon.
Respiration: Living organisms release carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere during respiration.
Combustion: Burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide: Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.
