The Life of Cameron the Carbon Atom
What a view! Sunsets look beautiful when you’re all the way up into the atmosphere. I’m having so much fun with my 2 oxygen friends. Life is so simple when you are a carbon atom. Just floating around, bumping into other atoms, jumping on clouds. Whoosh! Now life isn’t so boring anymore! Inside of a plant, what fun! I feel very important, being used for photosynthesis like this. Everything is very green-tinged. It must be the chlorophyll, or maybe I’m just woozy from the sudden change of height. Hang on. Oh no! The plant is being eaten by an animal! Goodbye cruel world….
Oh wait. I’m still here. The plant has gone, but now I’m inside an antelope. This is very strange. I think I preferred it when I was jumping on clouds.
This is the worst day of my life. I’m part of waste. Such a loss of dignity. I bet my oxygen friends are laughing at me in the sky. At least my life is more exciting now, if not slightly smellier. Here come the microorganisms. Releasing lots of enzymes, making the waste decay. Maybe that’s not such a bad thing. I quite like life inside a microorganism. I’m not the biggest fan of being eaten by a tiny bug, but needs must.
I’m flying again! The microorganism respired and I’ve been released from my prison of life on Earth! I believe I can fly……
I’m back with all my oxygen buddies in the atmosphere! I’ve caught up with all the gossip, hung out the clouds and I’m almost myself again. Hang on, its starting again, I’m being pulled back! Will I ever escape.....
The End
Answer:Correct on edg2021
I am a Carbon atom and I took birth in the air. I had spend a memorable time in a molecule and there were two very nice oxygen atoms too. I just got into the air and I am very excited that I had my complete incoming box of electrons. I am a carbon atom and I have six electrons. Right now I am in a carbon dioxide molecule and I am just wondering in air. While i was enjoying my journey I waved to my friends like oxygen gas which is a molecule of two oxygen atoms.Oxygen atom is my best friend. I’ve heard stories of becoming solids and many different things when i was too young, but now I just like the air and I am loving it.
