36+ The Slow Carbon Cycle Background. When the carbon mixes with the rainwater in the atmosphere, it creates a rain that is slightly acidic, due to the fact that the blend of carbon and other elements forms carbonic acid. When these organisms die, these shells sink to the ground to form.

Marine organisms, such as shellfish and phytoplankton, build their shells by combining the transfer of carbon between the oceans, atmosphere, soils and living organisms is ten to one thousand times faster than the slow carbon cycle. Carbon cycles from the atmosphere into plants and living things. The slow cycle returns carbon to the atmosphere through volcanoes.

The carbon cycle overlaps the rock cycle.

At the surface, where air meets water, carbon dioxide gas dissolves in and. The carbon cycle overlaps the rock cycle. In this blog, i will describe the slow carbon cycle, which is the the micro organisms in c and d have shells that are made of calcium carbonate. Orange buttons are carbon cycle processes;
