Carbon is the basic building block for all forms of life on Earth. Fortunately, carbon is also one of the most abundant elements on our planet. Like all matter, carbon can neither be created nor destroyed, and so all living organisms must find a way to continually reuse the finite carbon supply that is available.
Plants are important in the carbon cycle because when animals eat  the plants, the energy from the plant is transferred to the animal.  Then, when the animals break down the â¦ food to release energy,  carbon is returned to the air as carbon dioxide or CO2. 10 people found this useful.
