Analyze the given diagram of the carbon cycle below.

An image of carbon cycle is shown. The sun, a cloud, two trees, one towards left and the other towards right, an animal, lake, and a factory are included. Arrow A points from the sun to the left tree. Arrow B points from the air above the clouds to the left tree. Arrow C points from the factory towards the air above the clouds. Arrow D points from the air to the lake labeled Carbonates in Water. Arrow E points from the label Dead Organism under the animal to label Fossils and Fossil Fuels. Arrow F points from the right tree to the air.

Part 1: Which process does arrow A represent?
Part 2: Which type of energy transformation does arrow A represent?
Part 3: Justify why this process is a recycling of carbon in the carbon cycle.

Use complete sentences to explain your answer.

1. Arrow A indicates photosynthesis to the tree from the sun

2. Arrow A represents a process called photosynthesis which is energy from the sun turning into a chemical source which is food for the tree.

3. For the process of photosynthesis to be successful, carbon dioxide is absorbed and turned into the chemical energy which is food for the tree. (Hope this helps :3)
