What best describes the association between the carbon cycle, plants, and animals?
A) Plants decompose fixing carbon, and animals decompose releasing carbon.
B) Animals fix carbon through respiration, and plants fix carbon through photosynthesis.
C) Animals fix carbon and release oxygen, and plants release carbon and use oxygen.
D) Plants fix carbon and release oxygen, and animals release carbon and use oxygen.
Answer: Plants fix carbon and release oxygen, and animals release carbon and use oxygen.(D)
We know very well that plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen via photosynthesis whereas animals take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide for respiration. That is how the carbon cycle, plants and animals are associated.
