Is this process of carbon cycle correct?? Plzz please reply fast
Atmospheric carbon dioxide is taken up by the organic compounds that is the plants and then two things can happen. First the plants can return the carbon dioxide to atmosphere again or secondly this carbon dioxide can be taken up by animals. The animals can either return it to the atmosphere by respiration and decomposition or they can convert it into inorganic carbonates that is the shells or Petroleum. Plants also contributed making petroleum and coal. Another process can take place as carbon dioxide dissolved in water in the form of carbonates can be converted into limestone.
This is called carbon cycle
Dear student.
Your answer is correct. You can also refer below for a precise answer.

Carbon Cycle
Carbon enters life forms through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants prepare food in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water combine to produce glucose and oxygen. This changes the atmospheric carbon into glucose molecules.
Glucose, which is a source of food, is utilised by organisms to produce energy during respiration. During this process, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide.
Thus, through the processes of photosynthesis and respiration, carbon is utilised and then returned to the environment.
All organisms do not need oxygen to break down glucose and produce energy. The organisms which survive in the absence of oxygen are called anaerobes.
Another process that releases carbon dioxide is called combustion. It is the process of burning. Many substances release carbon dioxide on burning. Vehicular emissions, industrial fumes, and the gases released during the process of cooking are some instances during which carbon dioxide is released.
Hope this answers your question.
Cheers!!!
