The carbon cycle describes the process in which carbon atoms continually travel from the atmosphere to the Earth and then back into the atmosphere. Carbon is released back into the atmosphere when organisms die, volcanoes erupt, fires blaze, fossil fuels are burned, and through a variety of other mechanisms.
The answer is; Biodiversity resulting from few ancestors
Adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. The parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. Due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. They, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
A scientific explanation is backed up with data, experiments, observations, and has a large amount of evidence. A non-scientific explanation is usually backed up with beliefs, and opinions. There is no "science" behind that type of explanation.
<span>Decomposers are organisms such as ants, earthworms, bacteria an fungi that break down organic matter like dead and decaying plants and animals. Decomposers break the material down into its mineral components and returns it to the soil. If decomposers are absent in this ecosystem there would be no recycling of nutrients. Forest plants would not have available minerals to grow and productivity levels would fall significantly. </span>
