An animal eats a plant, then absorbs and exhales the carbon, which is then absorbed by other plants during photosynthesis. How does carbon move throughout the environment? a.) Plants use oxygen from the atmosphere to produce glucose. b.) Carbon is captured by plants using photosynthesis, absorbed by animals and released through cellular respiration. c.) All living things are made of hydrogen compounds, which can be recycled. d.) All energy comes from the process of fixation, in which plants capture light from the sun. b.)
