Hello,

You can find the diagram in your respective books where you are studying it. I cannot draw for here as for short note I can tell you that.

The carbon cycle is nature's way of reusing carbon atoms, which travel from the atmosphere into organisms in the Earth and then back into the atmosphere over and over again

Most carbon is stored in rocks and sediments, while the rest is stored in the ocean, atmosphere, and living organisms.

The 4 steps of the carbon cycle:

  • Photosynthesis, Decomposition, Respiration and Combustion. Carbon cycles from the atmosphere into plants and living things.

The carbon cycle describes the way the element carbon moves between the Earth's biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere.

It is important for a few reasons, Understanding how carbon dioxide is absorbed and released helps us understand the climate and predict global warming.

Hope this helps!!!
