Answer:

Part 1: "The process arrow A represents is Photosynthesis".

Part 2: "Arrow A represents light energy transformation. Light energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy in plants".

Part 3: "Photosynthesis is part of a carbon recycling process in the carbon cycle. Plants absorb light energy and then convert it into chemical energy. Plants can absorb carbon dioxide when it is exhaled by humans and animals. Plants can then produce oxygen which is absorbed by humans & animals. Animals also eat plants then making them pass through the carbon compounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps. I have the exact question as you, and I had a lot of trouble figuring it out. Good Luck:):):):):):):)):):):):):):)
