Answer 1

Breathing is related to the carbon cycle because **it converts glucose and oxygen to water and carbon dioxide**. During the process of cellular respiration, organisms (both animals and plants) use glucose (which can be derived from carbon compounds) and oxygen to produce energy, releasing carbon dioxide as a waste product. This carbon dioxide is then available to be used by plants in photosynthesis, thus linking the two processes in the carbon cycle.
