Answer:

The correct answer is option A, reservoir

Explanation:

All the plant, animals, and all other biomass is predominantly made up of carbon and are found mainly in the ocean reservoir, lithosphere and atmosphere . Also all the plants either on land or in ocean entraps the nutrients (i.e carbon, nitrogen etc.) from surroundings through photosynthesis and convert them into energy rich molecules which  also get concentrated in the ocean reservoir, lithosphere and atmosphere.  These three spheres are called the reservoirs as they contain 100%  of the nutrients (including carbon) with in them .

<h2>Answer:</h2>

A) Reservoirs

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When carbon dioxide CO2 is released into the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels, approximately 50% remains in the atmosphere, while 25% is absorbed by land plants and trees, and the other 25% is absorbed into certain areas of the ocean. The carbon dioxide is stored in the interior of the Earth in the form of carbonate rocks, such as limestone, dolomite, and chalk.  Fish and other animals in the ocean breathe oxygen and give off carbon dioxide (CO2), just like land animals and hence it remains there too.

Where are the different levels of the atmosphere located?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Troposphere

The troposphere starts at the Earth's surface and extends 8 to 14.5 kilometers high (5 to 9 miles). This part of the atmosphere is the most dense. Almost all weather is in this region.

Stratosphere

The stratosphere starts just above the troposphere and extends to 50 kilometers (31 miles) high. The ozone layer, which absorbs and scatters the solar ultraviolet radiation, is in this layer.

Mesosphere

The mesosphere starts just above the stratosphere and extends to 85 kilometers (53 miles) high. Meteors burn up in this layer

Thermosphere

The thermosphere starts just above the mesosphere and extends to 600 kilometers (372 miles) high. Aurora and satellites occur in this layer.

Ionosphere

The ionosphere is an abundant layer of electrons and ionized atoms and molecules that stretches from about 48 kilometers (30 miles) above the surface to the edge of space at about 965 km (600 mi), overlapping into the mesosphere and thermosphere. This dynamic region grows and shrinks based on solar conditions and divides further into the sub-regions: D, E and F; based on what wavelength of solar radiation is absorbed. The ionosphere is a critical link in the chain of Sun-Earth interactions. This region is what makes radio communications possible.

Exosphere

This is the upper limit of our atmosphere. It extends from the top of the thermosphere up to 10,000 km (6,200 mi).
