hintHint:

Carbon is an essential element in the bodies of living organisms.

The correct answer is: Decomposition


    • Additional causes for the release of CO2 into the atmosphere include the burning of organic matter, forest fires, burning of wood, burning of fossil fuels, and volcanic activity.
    • The rate of carbon dioxide emission into the atmosphere has dramatically risen as a result of rapid deforestation and widespread fossil fuel combustion for transportation and energy.
