Plants produce carbohydrates for themselves through the process of photosynthesis. which cycle is carried out when these carbohydrates are passed on along the food chain to animals and other consumers?

The cycle that is carried out during food chain and energy trophic level is the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle includes the giving off of the carbon dioxide of the organisms which is absorbed by plants through the stomata in aid for photosynthesis or food making. This  also includes the energy loss from one organism to another until the eventual decomposition of the animal

Ithink it true i might be wrong so don't take my word that its true.
