Question

i know this is a science question but i need help
Why does the earth need a carbon cycle?

Answer 1

If you know it's a science question then why are you posting it in math?

In any event, you've made an error in terminology that drives me up a wall. It's not your fault; even scientists do it.

The earth doesn't "need" a carbon cycle. The word "need" is an anthropomorphization of a chemical process. The earth can't "think" or "feel", so it has no "need" for anything.

A better question would be "how does the carbon cycle work?"

And even there, after all my huffing and puffing, I'm not in a position to give you a satisfactory answer. I don't know enough about it. Which is another excellent reason why this question belongs in one of the earth sciences groups.

Answer 2

It's rude to PM people and then block them so they can't reply. So I'll respond to your PM here:

I gave you an honest answer to the best of my ability. How do you figure I was being "rude"?

As for the "right" science room, here are 3 forums which could deal with the carbon cycle far, far better than mathemetics:

Answer 3

im sorry if im being rude to you the question just sounds rude

Answer 4

but it is true that im new at this so i dont know where to go

Answer 5

I assure you, I was in no way trying to be rude.

I suppose I may have been overly blunt, but believe me, if I was trying to be rude, your eyes would be bleeding. :-)
