What is the carbon cycle?

• The carbon cycle is the process by which carbon is exchanged between the atmosphere, land, oceans, and living organisms.

• The carbon cycle is the process by which water is exchanged between the atmosphere, land, oceans, and living organisms.

• The carbon cycle is the process by which nitrogen is exchanged between the atmosphere, land, oceans, and living organisms.

• The carbon cycle is the process by which oxygen is exchanged between the atmosphere, land, oceans, and living organisms.

How does the greenhouse effect contribute to global warming?

• By reducing the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

• By trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere

• By reflecting heat away from the Earth's surface.

• By increasing the Earth's albedo.

How do human activities impact the carbon cycle?

• Human activities only impact the carbon cycle in a positive way.

• Human activities decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

• Human activities release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and climate change.

• Human activities have no impact on the carbon cycle.
