Answer:

The fast carbon cycle is largely the movement of carbon through life forms on Earth, or the biosphere. During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel—glucose and other sugars—for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle.
