Answer:
Climate change has been described as one of the biggest problems faced by humankind. Carbon dioxide is is the primary driver of global warming. Prof Joanna Haigh from Imperial College London explains why this gas has played a crucial role in shaping the Earth's climate.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has been present in the atmosphere since the Earth condensed from a ball of hot gases following its formation from the explosion of a huge star about five billion years ago.
At that time the atmosphere was mainly composed of nitrogen, CO2 and water vapour, which seeped through cracks in the solid surface. A very similar composition emerges from volcanic eruptions today.
As the planet cooled further some of the water vapour condensed out to form oceans and they dissolved a portion of the CO2 but it was still present in the atmosphere in large amounts.

Explanation:
Experimentally, when trying to determine the concentration of an unknown sample of CuSO₄ with known absorbance, a standard curve is used. The standard curve is a scattered plot/graph in which known concentrations and there respective/corresponding absorbance are plotted on a "X and Y axis" graph (scattered plot). The absorbance is represented on the y-axis while the concentration is represented on the x-axis.
Once this known values are plotted on the standard curve, an unknown value (either absorbance or concentration) can be extrapolated from the curve. What is missing from the question is data required for the standard curve.
This question shows the absorbance of the CuSO₄ has been determined (most likely using spectrophotometer), the concentration could have been extrapolated from a standard curve.
An example of a standard curve is provided in the attachment for guidance.
The role of mass extinction in evolution. At the most basic level, mass extinctions reduce diversity by killing off specific lineages, and with them, any descendant species they might have given rise to. ... But mass extinction can also play a creative role in evolution, stimulating the growth of other branches.
