PLEASE HELP! Match each process to where it occurs in the carbon cycle.

Combustion, ingestion, decomposition, fossilization.

Carbon enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide from respiration (breathing)  and combustion (burning). Then, animals feed on the plants. Thus passing the carbon compounds along the food chain. Most of the carbon these animals consume however is exhaled as carbon dioxide. This is through the process of respiration. The animals and plants then eventually die. Next, The dead organisms (dead animals and plants) are eaten by decomposers in the ground. The carbon that was in their bodies is then returned to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. Finally, in some circumstances the process of decomposition is prevented. The decomposed plants and animals may then be available as fossil fuel in the future for combustion.  

Hope this helps!
