Can you explain it?


**Exercise: True or False Statements**

Indicate whether the following statements are true or false. If a statement is false, explain why it is false.

A. Photosynthetic organisms release only O₂ into the atmosphere, while non-photosynthetic organisms release only CO₂.

B. The cycling of carbon through the biosphere first requires the incorporation of inorganic CO₂ into organic molecules.

C. The oxidation of one molecule is always coupled to the reduction of a second molecule.

D. During cellular respiration, carbon-containing molecules become successively more oxidized until they reach their most oxidized form, as CO₂.
