How does carbon enter the biotic parts of the biosphere during the carbon cycle?

Carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide, enters living things from the nonliving environment when plants and other producers photosynthesize. Carbon returns to the environment when living things respire, are decomposed, or are burned (combustion).

Excess Carbon from the Atmosphere readily, and detrimentally, dissolves into our Oceans; yet these can scarcely be said to be abiotic.

They use CO2 to supply the carbon in the sugars they produce.

What is the carbon cycle?
The carbon cycle is a process by which carbon is cycled between the atmosphere, land, water and organisms. Carbon enters a short-term cycle in an ecosystem when producers, such as plants, convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis.The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere of the Earth
How oxygen although it does not have an independent cycle moves through the biosphere as part of the carbon?
Although oxygen does not have an independent cycle, it moves through the biosphere as part of the carbon cycle. Develop a model to illustrate how oxygen fits into the carbon cycle. Include the various forms that oxygen takes in your model.
Which process is part of the carbon cycle?
cellular respiration
The carbon cycle works in conjunction with what?
The carbon cycle is closely related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon is exchanged from the atmosphere (in the form of CO2) into the biosphere (in the form of glucose).
The carbon cycle involves an exchange of carbon between?
... the air, all living things, the oceans and the land.... the atmosphere, the biosphere, the hydrosphere and the geosphere.
Is a snail a biotic?
biotic because it is living and contributes to the carbon cycle
What kind of cycle is the continuous cycling of chemical elements through the biotic and abiotic components of the biosphere?
Biogeochemical cycling is the continuous cycling of chemical elements. This is through the biotic and abiotic components of the biosphere.
What is a carbon dioxide cycle?
=The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere of the Earth.=

Is snail biotic or abiotic?
biotic because it is living and contributes to the carbon cycle
Which biogeochemical cycle is least dependent on biotic processes?
the Carbon cycle

Where does carbon sequestration occur?
Carbon sequestration is part of the carbon cycle, so it could be said that is where it occurs. The carbon cycle refers to the circulation of carbon atoms in the biosphere.
How oxygen although it does not have an independent cycle moves through the biosphere as part of the carbon?
Although oxygen does not have an independent cycle, it moves through the biosphere as part of the carbon cycle. Develop a model to illustrate how oxygen fits into the carbon cycle. Include the various forms that oxygen takes in your model.
Which biochemical cycle is least dependent on biotic processes?
Carbon
Does carbon cycle involved an exchange of carbon between the atmosphere and geosphere only?
No, as well as the geosphere, the carbon cycle also moves carbon between the atmosphere, the biosphere, and the hydrosphere.
Which process is part of the carbon cycle?
cellular respiration
