C.Carbon cycle

Explanation:

Deforestation primarily contributes to global warming by disrupting the carbon cycle. Trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. When forests are cut down or burned, the carbon stored in trees is released back into the atmosphere as CO₂, a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Additionally, the removal of trees reduces the Earth's ability to absorb CO₂, further increasing the concentration of this greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.
