THE CARBON CYCLE

I like turtles.

This is Mr. Turtle. He is a part of the carbon cycle.

Using Photosynthesis, carbon is extracted from the atmosphere.

Then it is converted into compounds like glucose.

Next, animals like me eat those plants and obtain the carbon

compounds.

Next, animals like me eat those plants and obtain the carbon

compounds.

Next, animals like me eat those plants and obtain the carbon

compounds.

Then producers and consumers break down the compounds in the process

of aerobic respiration.

In this process, carbon is released back into the

atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide.

CO2

CO2 CO2

Over time, dead

organisms are buried under

the ground and are compacted

into fossil fuels.

Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere

dissolves into ocean water.

If the ocean water warms up, the CO2

will be released back into the atmosphere.

CO2 CO2

Shells from the ocean are made from carbon dioxide molecules. When the organisms die they are

buried in the ocean floor and compressed into limestone.

When the limestone is released, it is reintroduced into the atmosphere as acidic rain.

AND THAT’S THE CARBON CYCLEAND THAT’S THE CARBON CYCLE,

MAN

AND THAT’S THE CARBON CYCLE,

MAN-ILOW!

TAKE IT AWAY BARRY!!!

Stay in skool!
