The two carbons cycles are geological and biological
cycle one is animals and plants the other is mainly
volcanos and carbon. They look different because
geological is a big cycle and the biological is shorter
than each other. This is the steps of geological
carbon cycle, first it releases the carbon into the
atmosphere by volcanos. The carbon in the cloud
starts to rain but it turns acidic from the carbon.
The acid rain hits the rocks so the rocks dissolve
into smaller rocks. The carbon gets carried by the
river into the ocean. Carbon is used to form animal
shells. When animals die, their shells form
limestone. Subduction of carbonate rocks. This the
steps of biological science, Factory emissions in the
air. Animal respiration. Organic carbon.
Photosynthesis starts happening. Decay organisms.
Dead organisms and waste products such as fossil
fuel. Root respiration.
Geological carbon cycle
First it releases the carbon into the atmosphere by
volcanoes. Volcanoes produces 200 million tons of
carbon in our atmosphere. Volcanoes only erupt
once every ten years. Under sea volcanoes does
emit carbon and it is the same as the regular land
volcanoes. sometimes under water volcanoes will
melt ice that had carbon that is in the ice.
The carbon in the cloud starts to rain but it turns
acidic from the carbon. Acid rain is caused by a
chemical reaction that begins when compounds like
sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into
the air. These substances can rise very high into the
atmosphere, where they mix and react with water,
oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic
pollutants, known as acid rain. The acid rain hits the
rocks so the rocks dissolve into smaller rocks.
Minerals in rocks may react with the rainwater,
causing the rock to be weathered. When acidic
rainwater falls on limestone or chalk, a chemical
reaction happens. New, soluble, substances are
formed in the reaction. These dissolve in the water,
and then are washed away, weathering the rock.
The carbon gets carried by the river into the ocean.
Living things in the ocean move carbon from the
atmosphere into surface waters then down into the
deeper ocean and eventually into rocks. Decay
releases carbon dioxide into this deep water. Look
at the carbon cycle interactive to see how much
carbon is in the deep ocean compared to other
stores. Oceanographers and chemists working
together. While previous estimates put the ocean
sink at around 2bn tons of CO2 per year, we find
that it could be 0.8-09bn tons larger. Over the
whole 27-year study period of 1992-2018, this
means the global oceans have taken up 67bn tons
of CO2 rather than 43bn.
Carbon is used to form animal shells. When animals
die, their shells form limestone. This fluid contains
the ingredients for building the shell: calcium (Ca2+)
carbon (C) and oxygen (O). The carbon and oxygen
are generally found together in the form of
carbonate (CO32-). So, the animal firstly lays down
a layer of conchiolin, which is made from protein
and chitin.
Biological carbon cycle
Factory
emissions in the air. Humans put out more carbon
than anything from our activities. Carbon moves
from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are
burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power
factories, power plants, cars and trucks, most of the
carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon
dioxide gas. Each year, five and a half billion tons of
carbon is released by burning fossil fuels.
Animal respiration. During the carbon cycle, animals
and plants add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere
through cellular respiration, and plants remove
carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. The
burning of fossil fuels releases more carbon dioxide
into the atmosphere, contributing to global
warming. Root respiration is kind of like animals but
they the carbon from there roots. The uptake and
transport of ions, together with growth and
maintenance of roots themselves need energy, and
thus, root respiration releases CO2 to the soil and
into the air.
Photosynthesis starts happening. Photosynthesis is
where the plants start to take in the carbon then
instead releasing it. Photosynthesis is the process
by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon
dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of
sugar. It is convenient to divide the photosynthetic
process in plants into four stages, each occurring in
a defined area of the chloroplast: (1) absorption of
light, (2) electron transport leading to the reduction
of NADP+ to NADPH, (3) generation of ATP, and (4)
conversion of CO2 into carbohydrates (carbon
fixation). Photosynthesis takes place inside plant
cells in small objects called chloroplasts. Plants get
carbon dioxide from the air through their leaves,
and water from the ground through their roots.
Light energy comes from the Sun. The oxygen
produced is released into the air from the leaves.
Decay organism’s Dead organisms and waste
products such as fossil fuel. Rocks like limestone
and fossil fuels like coal and oil are storage
reservoirs that contain carbon from plants and
animals that lived millions of years ago. When these
organisms died, slow geologic processes trapped
their carbon and transformed it into these natural
resources. More carbon is moving to the
atmosphere when fossil fuels, like coal and oil, are
burned. More carbon is moving to the atmosphere
as humans get rid of forests by burning the trees.
Burning wood releases carbon into the atmosphere
that had been stored in the tree.
in conclusion there are 7 steps of geological and
ther are 7 steps on biological. This is the steps of
geological carbon cycle, first it releases the carbon
into the atmosphere by volcanos. The carbon in the
cloud starts to rain but it turns acidic from the
carbon. The acid rain hits the rocks so the rocks
dissolve into smaller rocks. The carbon gets carried
