The correct answer is option A, that is, a ratio of 1 carbon atom to 2 hydrogen atoms to 1 oxygen atom.
Carbohydrates are the main source of diet, they provide energy to the body, mainly via glucose, a basic sugar, which is a part of the starch and an ingredient in various staple foods.
The carbohydrates can be signified by the stoichiometric formula, that is, (CH2O)n. It can be also be stated that the ratio of the carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1: 2: 1 in the molecules of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are further categorized into three sub-kinds, that is, monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. The monosaccharides are the simple sugars, for example, glucose.
Answer:
Which of the following are involved in the cycling of nutrients in nature?
I.Bacteria
II.Plants
III.Earthworms
IV.Humans
Bacteria, Plants and Earthworms
Explanation:
Bacteria, Plants and Earthworms plays vital role im nutrients recycling in nature, earthworm does this during soil burrowing which enables the soil to mix together easily and allow nutrients to circulate. Plants also helps through the practice of mixed cropping and shifting cultivation whereby different plant is planted every year as the case maybe.
Answer:
Option (4)
Explanation:
Carbon forms the basin element for the existence of life. It is present in the atmosphere in the form of CO₂, which is one of the major green house gas. It plays an important role in the carbon cycle.
The increase in the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere can lead to the global rise in the temperature. It can lead to global warming. The amount of carbon in the atmosphere has been rising continuously, right after the industrial revolution.
The carbon is mainly emitted from the heavy industries and factories, vehicles, burning up of fossil fuels. It also increased due to the increasing absorption of solar radiation.
This emission of carbon if not controlled by the humans, then the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere will abruptly increase after some decades.
Thus, the correct answer is option (4).
