Answer

Photosynthesis

Explanation

The sun keeps the carbon cycle working by providing light energy. This light energy is used to carry out a process called photosynthesis by organisms that are known as producers. This process creates organic matter from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis thus helps maintain the activity of carbon sinks.
