Answer:
A plant absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis is considered as carbon assimilation or carbon fixation in the carbon cycle.
Explanation:
The carbon cycle is commonly referred to as cyclic pathway through which carbon enters into the living organisms from the atmosphere. Then it moves through different level of living organisms starting from producer plants in the form of carbon dioxide which is utilized in photosynthesis. The nutrients containing carbon compounds are then stored in the primary, secondary and tertiary consumers and ending the biotic component travel by the the process of respiration and decomposition by the micro organisms. Then the carbon moves to the abiotic part in the form of organic chemicals or compounds and again back to the atmosphere.
