To start, here is a diagram...
Okay so...
Respiration - breathing basically. this releases carbon dioxide back into the air.
Photosynthesis - carbon is taken in (by the plants)
Decomposition - when plants and animals die, decomposers decompose them. this introduces carbon back into the soil
Combustion - things like wood and fossil fuels are burned. This releases carbon dioxide back into the air
The carbon dioxide in the air is then taken in by plants and the cycle continues(this is why plants are so important)
A blog covering and explaining the Edexcel IGCSE Biology specification for the 2016 summer exams. If you are doing just double science, you do not need to learn the stuff for paper two, if you are doing triple you will need to learn all (GOOD LUCK!) I have separated the papers to make files easier to find. Hope it helps :)
