Describe the cycling of carbon in the carbon cycle as it passes through the living and non-living components of the ecosystem.(4 points)

Carbon cycle described the way nature reuses carbon atom which through natural processes travels from the living organisms to non living components of the ecosystem and then back again in a maintained cycle.

Explanation:

The aim of the cycle is to maintain the balance of carbon in the ecosystem between its living and non living components. As carbon passes through living to non living components the following occurs,

--> PHOTOSYNTHESIS: Green plants are able to manufacture their own food through the use of natural components such as Carbon dioxide,water and Sun energy. The products formed includes sugar( C6H12O6) and water. Through this process, carbon is taken in as carbon dioxide and used to produce glucose.

--> RESPIRATION: Living organisms takes in oxygen during respiration which is used to process carbon from the digested food to energy for their body use. Through expiration, carbon is released back to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.

--> DECOMPOSITION: The organic matter in dead plants and animals are being broken down through the anaerobic activity of bacteria to release carbon in form of Carbon dioxide.

clumped distribution, because you'de have all of the population gathered in a relatively small are.

it's the most common because it provides protection and a mate for reproduction

example: humans, seeweed, cattles, etc.
