Carbon Monoxide has 2 atoms total - one atom of carbon (C) and one atom of oxygen (O) chemical formula is CO
Ethylene has 6 atoms total, 2 atoms of carbon (C) and 4 atoms of hydrogen (H), chemical formula is C2H4.
Ethylene has four more atoms than carbon monoxide (6-2) = 4
Answer:
a, a permanent thermocline traps nutrients in the deep water
b. primary productivity is high all year round, because there is a constant supply of solar energy for photosynthesis.
Explanation:
Thermocline occurs in the tropical regions because the temperature is very high which warms the upper layer of water bodies whereas the lower layer of water has low temperature due to no sunlight. The primary productivity is high all year in the tropical regions, because there is a constant supply of sunlight that is needed by the plants for preparing their own food.
