➭ AnSwer :-
- Either carbon got here by diffusing from the atmosphere, by decomposing marine life, or from circulating water from the deep ocean.
- The ocean absorbs more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than the land does.
- The surface ocean takes in approximately 90 Gigatons of carbon per year.

Carbon is a chemical element that gets removed by a number of 65 GtC each year from the ocean and land plants.
Explanation:
- Carbon is exchanged between reservoirs in a process known as the carbon cycle, which has both slow and fast components. Any alteration in the cycle that causes carbon to be shifted from one reservoir to another causes more carbon to be deposited in the other reservoirs. Warmer temperatures on Earth arise from changes that release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Hence, 65 GtC is the total amount of carbon that the ocean and land plants extract from the atmosphere each year.
