Why is carbon important in the environment?

Carbon is an essential element for all life, so understanding how it moves helps us to understand biological processes and factors that influence them.

Explanation:

Because plant take in carbon dioxide to produce oxygen (im not certain if this answers your question

)

mountains can affect the climate of nearby lands. in some areas, mountains block rain, so that one side of a mountain range may be rainy and the other side may be a desert. much of airborne moisture falls as rain on the windward side of mountains.

explanation:

igneous rocks which formed by the crystallization of magma at the surface of the earth called extrusive rocks. they are characterized by fine-grained textures because the rapid cooling at or near the surface did not provide enough time for large crystals to grow.
