2. The grasshopper consumes plants for energy and releases carbon dioxide as waste.
3. Decomposers break down the grasshopper's exoskeleton, releasing carbon back into the environment.
4. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air through photosynthesis.
5. Animals that eat plants consume the carbon stored in the plants' tissues.
6. When plants and animals die, decomposers break down their remains, releasing carbon back into the environment.
Order from top to bottom:
