During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel—glucose and other sugars—for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle.


What is Cycle Carbon?

The carbon cycle is the movement of carbon between the different reservoirs on the earth. The key carbon cycles operate at the terrestrial, atmospheric and oceanic levels. Carbon is stored within the atmosphere in land and in oceans, and is moved by various processes. Carbon stores are where the carbon is stored, and fluxes are the movement/transfer of the carbon between stores. Processes are the physical ways in which fluxes happen
