Q

List the processes in the carbon cycle

A

CO2 in the atmosphere

Photosynthesis in plants leads to plant respiration

Animals eating plants, animals respirate

Plants and animals die and microbes eat the remains and decomposition increases CO2

Factories produce CO2 from combustion. Extraction from below in fossil fuels is where the stored CO2 is. Separate process from plant and animal decaying matter.
