microorganism respiration; and decomposition. Indicate how human combustion activities upset the natural balance of the carbon cycle. What will be an ideal response? Question 2 Diagram the hydrological cycle. Include the terms evaporation, transpiration, percolation, groundwater, runoff, condensation, and precipitation. What will be an ideal response? Title: Describe and diagram the carbon cycle. Include the terms photosynthesis; plant and animal ... Post by: mt on Mar 29, 2018 Photosynthesis provides a source of oxygen to the atmosphere. This oxygen is used for all plant and animal respiration. The output of respiration is atmospheric carbon dioxide, which is, in turn, taken up by plants for the process of photosynthesis. Decomposition is accomplished by bacteria and other organisms such as saprophytes. This process yields atmospheric carbon dioxide. Human combustion activities that burn fossil fuels have produced an overabundance of carbon dioxide, which is causing climate change. Concepts to Consider: Starting with a cloud, the water condenses and ultimately falls to Earth either as precipitation over land or the ocean; water percolates through the soil and may reach the groundwater, be taken up by plants, or run off into bodies of water; water taken up by plants may be transpired and reenter the atmosphere in this way. Water also reenters the atmosphere via evaporation from bodies of water. Title: Describe and diagram the carbon cycle. Include the terms photosynthesis; plant and animal ...
