Question

The Carbon Cycle is an example of how materials move through the spheres. The diagram below shows how carbon (in the form of CO2, a gas) moves from the atmosphere, to the biosphere/lithosphere/hydrosphere, and back into the atmosphere. Use the answer choices below to fill in the table to show how a process moves carbon from one sphere to another. Some answer choices may be used more than once, only once, or not at all.

Answer 1

Here's how the processes in the Carbon Cycle move carbon between the different spheres.

1. **Decaying of animals and plants**
- **Moving carbon from the**: biosphere
- **to the**: lithosphere

2. **Factory and Vehicle Emissions (burning of fossil fuels)**
- **Moving carbon from the**: lithosphere
- **to the**: atmosphere

3. **Photosynthesis**
- **Moving carbon from the**: atmosphere
- **to the**: biosphere

4. **Plant & Animal Respiration**
- **Moving carbon from the**: biosphere
- **to the**: atmosphere
