Based on Ecology, which best describes the process of the Oxygen-Carbon Dioxide Cycle?
During photosynthesis, plants give off oxygen as a waste product. Carbon dioxide moves from the air into the leaves of plants through tiny openings in the plant's leaves. Oxygen moves out of the plant leaf through these same openings.
Nitrogen is converted into many forms, consecutively passing from the atmosphere to the soil to organism and back into the atmosphere.
The process by which phosphorus moves through the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere
During gas exchange oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream. At the same time carbon dioxide passes from the blood to the lungs. This happens in the lungs between the alveoli and a network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries, which are located in the walls of the alveoli.

predation
competition
mutualism
parasitism

predation
competition
mutualism
