The metabolism of living things is part of Earth's carbon cycle because a. organisms build and break down carbon-containing compounds, moving carbon through the environment. b. organisms need enzymes to release energy gradually from their cells and to aid the formation of energy-storing compounds. c. living things use oxygen to release energy in cellular respiration. d. the environment supplies water to living things.
a. organisms build and break down carbon-containing compounds, moving carbon through the environment.
