1. Living organisms play an important role in the recycling of many elements within an ecosystem. One such way this idea can be proven is through the study of carbon in an ecosystem. Plants‚ for starters‚ are a major part of this carbon cycle. During photosynthesis‚ plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen as a waste product. Another major contributor to this vital cycle is the human being. The average human being goes through respiration each day to help maintain
