- Carbon is also moved throughout the food web sinceherbivores eat plants, carnivores eat those herbivoresand so on up the chain. Animals also release carbonduring respiration when they exhale
- Carbon moves into the soilthrough the process ofanimals dying and excretingdroppings and whenexposed to extremely highpressures undergroundthey can slowly turn intofossil fuels.
- Bodies of watersuch as theoceans are knownas carbon sinksince they soakup carbon fromthe atmosphere.
- Humans use fossil fuels at power plants, to heathomes, and run vehicles. Most of this carbon goesback into the atmosphere.
