Explanation:
The Carbon Cycle
The element carbon is a part of seawater, the atmosphere, rocks such as limestone and coal, soils, as well as all living things. On our dynamic planet, carbon is able to move from one of these realms to another as a part of the carbon cycle.
Carbon moves from the atmosphere to plants. In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2). Through the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is pulled from the air to produce food made from carbon for plant growth.
Carbon moves from plants to animals. Through food chains, the carbon that is in plants moves to the animals that eat them. Animals that eat other animals get the carbon from their food too.
Carbon moves from plants and animals to soils. When plants and animals die, their bodies, wood and leaves decays bringing the carbon into the ground. Some is buried and will become fossil fuels in millions and millions of years.
Carbon moves from living things to the atmosphere. Each time you exhale, you are releasing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) into the atmosphere. Animals and plants need to get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration.
Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks, most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas. Each year, five and a half billion tons of carbon is released by burning fossil fuels. Of this massive amount, 3.3 billion tons stays in the atmosphere. Most of the remainder becomes dissolved in seawater.
Carbon moves from the atmosphere to the oceans. The oceans, and other bodies of water, absorb some carbon from the atmosphere. The carbon is dissolved into the water.
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and traps heat in the atmosphere. Without it and other greenhouse gases, Earth would be a frozen world. But since the start of the Industrial Revolution about 150 years ago humans have burned so much fuel and released so much carbon dioxide into the air that global climate has risen over one degree Fahrenheit. The atmosphere has not held this much carbon for at least 420,000 years according to data from ice cores. The recent increase in amounts of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide is having a significant impact on the warming of our planet.
Carbon moves through our planet over longer time scales as well. For example, over millions of years weathering of rocks on land can add carbon to surface water which eventually runs off to the ocean. Over long time scales, carbon is removed from seawater when the shells and bones of marine animals and plankton collect on the sea floor. These shells and bones are made of limestone, which contains carbon. When they are deposited on the sea floor, carbon is stored from the rest of the carbon cycle for some amount of time. The amount of limestone deposited in the ocean depends somewhat on the amount of warm, tropical, shallow oceans on the planet because this is where prolific limestone-producing organisms such as corals live. The carbon can be released back to the atmosphere if the limestone melts or is metamorphosed in a subduction zone.

How is nuclear energy generated?
Answer:
Nuclear energy is generated either by Fission of a nucleus into two or more fragments , or by Fusion of two nuclei into one. The nuclear energy is used to superheat steam and then drive a rotor axle inside a generator and then generate electricity.
Answer:Nuclear power comes from nuclear fission
Explanation:Nuclear power plants heat water to produce steam. The steam is used to spin large turbines that generate electricity. Nuclear power plants use heat produced during nuclear fission to heat water. In nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy.

How will a solution change if a base is added?
The hydroxide ion concentration will decrease and lower the pH.
The hydroxide ion concentration will decrease and raise the pH.
The hydrogen ion concentration will increase and lower the pH.
The hydroxide ion concentration will increase and raise the pH.
Answer:
As the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution increase, the more acidic the solution becomes. As the level of hydroxide ions increases the more basic, or alkaline, the solution becomes. ... Thus, as the hydrogen ion concentration increases hydroxide ion concentration falls, and vice versa.

do fertilizer also increase the number of bacteria as they do for plants, or do they increase when the decomposition of plants occur?
Answer:
my views
Explanation:
bacteria helps in the decomposition of wastes ,and after the decomposition of waste material by bacteria it leads to the creation of nitrogen's oxides and this nitrogen's oxides works as fertilizer which leads to the good crops and we don't need of any chemicals' made fertilizer
Answer:
Farmers can add nitrogen fertilizer to produce better crops, but too much can hurt plants and animals, and pollute our aquatic systems.

The blood pressure of a person is 140/100 mm of Hg, what does it mean?
Answer: When is blood pressure considered high? Normal blood pressure is under 120/80. From 120/80 to 139/89 is pre-hypertension. The threshold for high blood pressure is 140/90, while anything over 180/110 is hypertensive crisis – an emergency.
Explanation:
Describe the general temperature of ocean currents near the equator and the poles.
Answer:
Currents flowing away from the Equator are generally warm.
Explanation:
That is because the Equatorial regions is the source of warm air and water. Ocean currents flowing from the Equator thus carry this warm water with them. The most prominent example is the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean, which runs most of the way to the North Pole and brings mild winter climates in its wake to adjacent coastal areas. In the Pacific Ocean the Alaska Current likewise carries warm water northward making Anchorage, Alaska much milder in winter than inland areas with the same latitude.

What is the process of nitrification?
Bacteria converts ammonia into nitrites and nitrates that plants can use.
Fungi convert nitrogen in dead plants into ammonium, which converts proteins into ammonia.
Nitrogen is converted into a useable form through lightning fixation.
Plant enzymes reduce nitrogen compounds into amino acids.
Answer:
Bacteria converts ammonia into nitrites and nitrates that plants can use.
Nitrification is a microbial process by which reduced nitrogen compounds (primarily ammonia) are sequentially oxidized to nitrite and nitrate. Ammonia is present in drinking water through either naturally-occurring processes or through ammonia addition during secondary disinfection to form chloramines.

Which step of cellular respiration is shown in the image?
glycolysis
lactic acid fermentation
electron transport chain
Krebs cycle
Answer:
electron transport chain
Explanation:
just took the quiz
The image shows the C. electron transport chain (ETC) step of cellular respiration
What is the electron transport chain ?The ETC is the final stage of cellular respiration, where oxygen is used to create ATP. NADH and FADH2, which are produced in the Krebs cycle, donate electrons to the ETC.
The electrons are passed through a series of proteins, which release energy that is used to pump protons across the mitochondrial membrane. This creates a proton gradient, which is used to power ATP synthase to produce ATP
The Krebs cycle and lactic acid fermentation are both earlier steps in cellular respiration. In the Krebs cycle, pyruvate is oxidized to produce NADH, FADH2, and ATP. In lactic acid fermentation, pyruvate is converted to lactate, producing NADH.
