Carbon storage and exchange. The Carbon Cycle Also called a flux. . Keeping this important theme in mind explain how an increase in CO 2 fossil fuel emissions can alter the ocean. The Slow Carbon Cycle. Carbon can be stored in a variety of reservoirs including plants and animals which is why they are considered carbon life forms. Which of these nutrients can be found in all organic compounds. Carbon is used by plants to build leaves and stems which are then digested by animals and used for cellular growth. Carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring gas critical to the carbon cycle. Most of Earths carbonabout 65500 billion metric tonsis stored in rocks. Plants soil and the ocean act as carbon sinks in this process meaning they take...
