The carbon cycle is the biogeochemical cycle by which carbon is exchanged among the biosphere, pedosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere of the Earth.
Another major exchange of CO2 occurs between the oceans and the atmosphere. The dissolved CO2 in the oceans is used by marine biota in photosynthesis.
Another process that adds to the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is the process of combustion where fuels are burnt to provide energy.
Thus carbon is cycled repeatedly through different forms by the various physical and biological activities.
