The resident time would be zero because carbon is released as soon as it is absorbed

The resident time will decrease because plants will be taking in carbon dioxide to use for photosynthesis

The resident time will depend on where the organism lives because it might be influenced by cellular respiration
The resident time will depend on where the organism lives because it might be influenced by cellular respiration
The resident time will increase because there will be a buildup of carbon in the atmosphere

The most appropriate response based on the information provided is:
The resident time will depend on where the organism lives because it might be influenced by cellular respiration.
This response recognizes that the resident time of carbon in organisms can vary based on factors such as the type of organism, its metabolic processes (like cellular respiration), and environmental conditions, even if the overall carbon cycle remains balanced.
