I will train to be a game show host, so try to match my energy. Ok, last question, you win this, you win the game.

Question

Sort the following things into categories, add carbon, remove carbon, and both add and remove carbon.

Combustion of fossil fuels

Photosynthesis

cellular respiration

Diffusion between ocean and atmosphere.

And what is your answer?

Answer 1

Alright, game show energy activated! 🎉 Here we go!

Categories:

Add Carbon:

• Combustion of fossil fuels - This process releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere!

Remove Carbon:

• Photosynthesis - Plants take in carbon dioxide and convert it into oxygen and glucose. They’re carbon champions! 🌱

Both Add and Remove Carbon:

• Cellular respiration - Organisms use oxygen to break down glucose, releasing carbon dioxide. It’s a cycle of adding and removing!
• Diffusion between ocean and atmosphere - Carbon dioxide moves between these environments; it can be absorbed by the ocean (removing carbon) or released (adding carbon).

And that’s a wrap on the categories! What do you think? Did I get it right? 🏆
