Carbon Cycle Model

The Carbon Cycle Model describes how carbon moves between Earth's ecosystems, atmosphere, oceans, and underground. Plants absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, storing it as organic material. When plants and animals die, their remains are buried or decompose, releasing carbon back into the environment. Oceans absorb CO₂ from the atmosphere, acting as a buffer. Human activities, like burning fossil fuels, add extra carbon, disrupting this natural balance. The model helps us understand these processes, predict climate change impacts, and develop strategies to manage carbon emissions and promote a stable, healthy planet.
