Carbon dioxide dissolves in the ocean
Enters from living organisms, dead water creating carbonic acid, that turn
organisms, burning organic materials, hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions.
erupting volcanoes, and ocean water's
involvement. Rocks & Sediment
Biosphere It takes millions of years for carbon to cycle
Autotrophic organisms use bicarbonate through the geological pathway.
ions to synthesize organic compounds Bicarbonate ions form rocks, dead organism
like glucose. all organisms release CO2 on the ocean floor layer form rocks, pockets
as a byproduct of cellular respiration, form, & rocks subduct to the surface
and decomposers also release CO2. through volcanoes, all carbon-containing!
