The Role of Respiration and Photosynthesis in Carbon Cycle Dynamics

This article explores the intricate interactions between animal respiration, decaying organic matter, and plant photosynthesis in the carbon cycle. It examines how oxidation processes in soils and the contribution of plankton and decaying plants impact carbon dioxide levels. Additional factors such as volcanic eruptions, animal exhalation, burning of fossil fuels, and deforestation are discussed. Visual aids illustrate the processes involved in carbon dynamics, demonstrating the balance between CO2 production and consumption by plants through photosynthesis.
