Blog of the day!

All movements within the carbon cycle either require or release energy.
SO, plants use carbon dioxide and energy from the sun to form carbohydrates by means of photosynthesis.
Carbs are then consumed by other organisms, and are eventually broken down or oxidized. And, releasing energy for use by the organisms that consumed them.

71 percent of earth's carbon atoms are dissolved in its oceans. And 22 percent are trapped in fossil fuels and in carbonate rocks formed when dissolved CO2 reacted with water, producing carbonates, then sediments, and then rocks.

-NAtural movement of carbon within earth's systems
