How is carbon involved in photosynthesis?

Carbon in fossil fuels is released through burning.

Plants use carbon from carbon dioxide to make glucose.

Animals break down the glucose to release carbon in CO2.

Organisms release carbon from bodies of dead animals.

When plants/animals die, the carbon in their body is either released or stored as fossil fuels.
