A student is drawing a model of the carbon cycle. Which caption should he include to explain how herbivores contribute to the carbon cycle from the food they eat?

Herbivores eat plants, producing carbon dioxide during cellular respiration that is released into the atmosphere.

Herbivores eat plants, producing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis that is released into the atmosphere.

Herbivores use carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to produce oxygen during cellular respiration.

Herbivores use oxygen from the atmosphere to produce carbon dioxide during photosynthesis.

Amaiah need an image to represent the carbon cycle for a presentation in Mrs. Avila-Reyes' science class. Based on the models, which statement is true?

Model D would be the best for the carbon cycle because the carbon cycle is a flow of matter which can take different paths bringing carbon back to the same place.

Model A would be the best model for the carbon cycle because carbon depletes over time as it is used by different organisms.

Model B would be the best model for the carbon cycle because carbon will follow the same path when it is transferred from one place to another.

Model C would be the best model for the carbon cycle because the carbon cycle has a definite beginning and end where carbon eventually cannot be reused.

Which model is a correct pathway for carbon in the carbon cycle?

atmosphere → plants → animals → ground

ground → animals → plants → atmosphere

plants → ground → animals → atmosphere

animals → plants → atmosphere → ground

Which of the following statements is most accurate?

A finite amount of carbon exists on Earth, and it moves through living and nonliving materials through the carbon cycle.

The amount of carbon in the universe cycles, gradually increasing as it moves up the food chain, and decreasing until the next phase of the cycle.

Carbon flows through the food chain as animals eat it, then decomposes and is permanently removed from the system when the food chain is complete.

Carbon enters Earth's atmosphere when animals exhale, then moves into space where its amount steadily increases, and finally moves back into Earth's atmosphere to be used again.

Which statement best describes how organisms demonstrate the transformation of energy?

Light energy from the Sun is converted into chemical energy in a wildflower, which is converted into mechanical energy in a deer that eats the wildflower.

Light energy from the Sun is converted into mechanical energy in a rabbit, which is converted into thermal energy and dispersed into the atmosphere.

Light energy from the Sun is converted into mechanical energy in a deer, which produces waste that is absorbed by a wildflower to produce chemical energy.

Light energy from the Sun is converted into chemical energy in a mushroom, which is converted into thermal energy as the mushroom breaks down dead matter.

Which statement about the carbon cycle is most true?

Carbon changes form, but the total amount on Earth remains the same.

Energy is destroyed when organic matter decays.

The total mass of carbon on Earth is always increasing.

Carbon is lost from the cycle when it enters the atmosphere.

If Brooklyn is going out of town, then what should she do to make sure that her plants stay alive while she is gone?

place a lamp over the terrarium and add a lot of water

add lizards and insects to the terrarium

add more sand to the bottom of the terrarium

place the terrarium in a dark spot and add a lot of water
