The correct answer is - A. 780 GtC.
If the inputs and outputs of carbon are as shown on the image, than the carbon levels in the atmosphere will reduce by 20 GtC in a ten year time, thus making the atmosphere have 780 GtC instead of the initial 800 GtC.
On the image we can see that the carbon that gets up into the atmosphere is 69 GtC annually, while the carbon that returns on the Earth is 71 GtC annually. That means a drop of 2 GtC annually in the carbon levels in the atmosphere.
Such a process will reduce the Greenhouse effect, and eventually it will lead to an ice age because the atmosphere will not be able to retain as much heat as previously, thus the Earth will cool off.

Answer: If this population were in equilibrium and if the sickle-cell allele is recessive, the proportion of the population susceptible to sickle-cell anemia under typical conditions should be 0.20
Explanation: Hardy-Weinberg law provides an equation to relate genotype frequencies and allele frequencies in a randomly mating population. The equation is;
p² + 2pq + q² = 1
For 2 alleles such as A and a, where
p² = homozygous dominant
q² = homozygous recessive and
2pq = heterozygous
From the question, it is said that the sickle-cell allele (SS) constitutes 20% (that is, 20/100) of the hemoglobin alleles in the human gene pool and it is also said to be the homozygous recessive allele.
Therefore, q² = 20/100 = 0.20
Answer:
Through the study of meteorites, their chemical composition of silicates—material made of silicon and oxygen. Others contain metal—nickel and iron. Knowing what the meteorite was composed of lets you know where it came from. Chondrites are composed of hardened lava - this is occurred at the beginning of the solar system (4.5 mya). Carbonaceous chondrites contain carbon and water which formed away from the sun.

Answer:
periapsis
Explanation:
Periapsis is the point when the orbiting object comes the closest to the thing it is orbiting around; for example, the moon is at periapsis when it is closest to the Earth.
