A
most common source of phosphates in the soil is the weathering of the mineral apatite.
Explanation:
Apatite is a group of phosphate minerals like hydroxylapatite, fluorapatite, and chlorapatite. When apatite rocks weather, they release the phosphate minerals mainly in the form of PO₄ ³⁻ . These minerals become dissolved in water (hydrosphere), where they are readily available to plants and other organisms in the biosphere. The phosphates are taken up and used in biosynthesis. When these organisms die and become buried with sediments, the phosphate gets back to the lithosphere as sedimentary rock.

I believe the answer is B: It’s moving at a constant speed.
Answer:
Firstly they are, by design, easy to use in most scientific and engineering calculations; you only ever have to consider multiples of 10. If I’m given a measurement of 3.4 kilometres, I can instantly see that it’s 3′400 metres, or 0.0034 Megametres, or 3′400′000 millimetres. It’s not even necessary to use arithmetic, I just have to remember the definitions of the prefixes (“kilo” is a thousand, “megametre” is a million, “milli” is a thousandth) and shift the decimal point across to the left or the right. This is especially useful when we’re considering areas, speeds, energies, or other things that have multiple units; for instance,
1 metre^2 = (1000millimetre)^2 = 1000000 mm^2.
If we were to do an equivalent conversion in Imperial, we would have
1 mile^2 = (1760 yards)^2
and we immediately have to figure out what the square of 1760 is! However, the fact that SI is based on multiples of 10 has the downside that we can’t consider division by 3, 4, 8, or 12 very easily.
Secondly they are (mostly) defined in terms of things that are (or, that we believe to be) fundamental constants. The second is defined by a certain kind of radiation that comes from a caesium atom. The metre is defined in terms of the second and the speed of light. The kelvin is defined in terms of the triple point of water. The mole is the number of atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12. The candela is defined in terms of the light intensity you get from a very specific light source. The ampere is defined using the Lorentz force between two wires. The only exception is the kilogram, which is still defined by the mass of a very specific lump of metal in a vault in France (we’re still working on a good definition for that one).
Thirdly, most of the Imperial and US customary units are defined in terms of SI. Even if you’re not personally using SI, you are probably using equipment that was designed using SI.

The strongest of the natural forces is Strong Nuclear, followed by Electromagnetic, then Weak Nuclear and lastly Gravitational.
So from weakest to strongest: gravitational --> weak nuclear --> electromagnetic --> strong nuclear
