Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are important parts of the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle is the pathways through which carbon is recycled in the biosphere. ... Some of the energy is used to make ATP in the mitochondria during cellular respiration, and some is lost to the environment as heat.

During cellular respiration is when a living organism takes in oxygen made from plants during photosynthesis. This is apart of the carbon cycle because it then releases carbon dioxide into the air.
