decay

- when an animal dies and organisms break them down into the elements and goes into the ground which makes fossil fuels

fossil fuels

- fossil fuels are created by when animals decay millions of years ago and break down into the ground and let out oxygen and puts elements and gasses into the ground and creates fossil fuels.

5

tectonic activity

- when different plates underground move causing volcanoes

- carbon moves through below the earth and goes through a volcano and releases into the atmosphere

6

combustion of fossil fuels

- fossil fuels burn from underground and is burned to creats energy

- raises earths temperature = global warming - raises sea level, kills plants/ bad for the environment

- falls back don to earth which makes acid rain

7

difusion

- when carbon dioxide is released from under water

- warm water releases carbon dioxide

- cold air holds carbon dioxide
