3/20 which statement about fossilization in the carbon cycle is accurate? it converts co2 directly into sugars it releases co2 quickly it only occurs under specific conditions and can take thousands to millions of years it happens rapidly to all organisms after death
Fossilization is a process that occurs under specific conditions (such as lack of oxygen, rapid burial) and takes a very long time (thousands to millions of years). Photosynthesis converts CO₂ into sugars. Respiration and combustion release CO₂ quickly. Not all organisms fossilize rapidly after death as many decompose instead.
