Carbon Cycle

Carbon Cycle

The carbon cycle describes the movement of carbon among Earth's biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. It involves processes like photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and fossil fuel formation. Carbon plays a crucial role in life and climate regulation. Disruptions in the cycle can lead to global warming and climate changes.
Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the process by which phototrophs convert light energy into chemical energy stored as sugars made from water and carbon dioxide. It occurs in chloroplasts using chlorophyll and other pigments. This process produces oxygen and involves light-dependent and light-independent reactions. Various factors like light intensity and CO2 concentration affect photosynthesis.
