(b) Process of photosynthesis of carbon dioxide is explained in following steps:
• Through the process of photosynthesis carbon enters into living world in the form of carbon dioxide.
• This organic compound (food) is then passed from the producers to the consumers (herbivores & carnivores).
• By the process of respiration or decomposition of dead bodies of plant and animals by decomposers this carbon returns back to the surrounding medium.
• Recycling of carbon is also done by the burning of fossil fuels.
