Slow geological processes, including the formation of sedimentary rock and fossil fuels, contribute to the carbon cycle over long timescales.
Some human activities, such as burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, increase atmospheric \text{CO}_2CO

Answer:
Choice B
Explanation:
"Permeable" means "Letting solids or liquids through (a material.)" "Semi" means "half or partly." So "semipermeable" means allowing some objects through, but not all.
Answer:
0.25%
Explanation:
20 people start the new population. So there are 20 genes or 40 alleles for the recessive disorder phenylketonuria. 2 out of 40 alleles are recessive for the condition hence frequency of the allele = 2/40 = 0.05
Frequency of the allele does not change when the population increases so it is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. According to it, if q is the frequency of recessive allele, q² = frequency of the recessive condition
Here, q = 0.05 So,
q² = (0.05)² = 0.0025
In percentage, it is 100 * 0.0025 = 0.25%
Hence, incidence of phenylketonuria in the new population is 0.25%
