Description: Most carbon is in Earth’s rocks, where it is largely unavailable to living organisms. 1 Carbon enters land food webs when plants take up carbon dioxide from the air for use in photosynthesis. 2 Carbon returns to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide when plants and other land organisms carry out aerobic respiration. 3 Carbon diffuses between the atmosphere and the ocean. Bicarbonate forms when carbon dioxide dissolves in seawater.
