Carbon is an essential element in the bodies of living organisms.
The correct answer is: Decomposition
- Additional causes for the release of CO2 into the atmosphere include the burning of organic matter, forest fires, burning of wood, burning of fossil fuels, and volcanic activity.
- The rate of carbon dioxide emission into the atmosphere has dramatically risen as a result of rapid deforestation and widespread fossil fuel combustion for transportation and energy.
