I would say the word would be "decompose". Organic matter for example trees, large ferns of bygone eras etc acted (and still act) as a carbon sink and if they are preserved, they to some extent keep carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere so help to keep oxygen levels higher in the atmosphere. Some forms of preservation are rapid burial and the formation of fossils of ancient organisms.

adell [148]

Answer:

Circulating air is diverted due to the Earth's rotation. Instead of flowing in a straight line, air in the Northern Hemisphere deflects to the right, whereas in the Southern Hemisphere it deflects to the left, resulting in curved trajectories. The Coriolis effect is the name for this deflection.

Proteins and nucleic acids both play vital roles in the structure and function of cells.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Part A: Proteins are made from amino acid monomers. There are 20 different types of amino acids which make up all the proteins of the body. The amino acids are made up of a carbon atom which is joined to an amino group, a carboxyl group and a variant group, known as R. Nucleic acids are made up of 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous bases.  Hence, nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides.

Part B: Protiens are important molecule which carry out various functions of the body. They are involved in regulation of various body process. Some proteins are involved in the transportation of various molecules. Other type of proteins are involved in various immune functions and hence protect the body. For example, antibodies are proteins which defend the body against pathogens.

Nucleic acids are involved in the storing and expressing of genetic information. They also direct the body for protein synthesis.
