Answer:

The main natural carbon sinks are plants, the ocean and soil. Plants grab carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to use in photosynthesis; some of this carbon is transferred to soil as plants die and decompose. The oceans are a major carbon storage system for carbon dioxide.

How many years might primary succession take with medium amounts of rainfall and temperature? Explain why ​ HELPP PLEASE HELP
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The primary succession process can take hundreds of years to happen, even in medium amounts of rain and temperature.

Explanation:

The primary succession occurs when a community of plants begins to sprout in areas that have never been occupied by any type of living being. The primary succession occurs, for example, with the sprouting of vegetables in rocky outcrops. These plant species are known as primary species and although they are able to survive, these environments offer few resources for the development of living things. Generally, it takes hundreds and even thousands of years for primary succession to occur, even in environments with average temperature and precipitation.

The microorganisms that inhabit the sludge at the bottom of a lake would live in which microbiota zone
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a lake, oxygenic phototrophs produce new organic material as  well as O₂. If primary production rates are very high, the resultant  excessive organic matter production can lead to bottom-water O₂ depletion from respiration and the development of anoxic conditions.  This in turn stimulates anaerobic metabolisms, including  anaerobic respirations and fermentations.

Organic matter that is not  consumed in surface layers sinks to the depths and is decomposed  by anaerobes.
