Answer:
B. decay of dead marine organisms
Explanation:
When the temperature is low, carbon dioxide is captured by the oceans, and when the temperature is high, it is released by the oceans into the atmosphere. At sea, carbon dioxide feeds phytoplankton.
Most of the carbon dioxide consumed by plant plankton (phytoplankton) returns to the atmosphere when this phytoplankton dies or is consumed, but a portion is deposited in the ocean floor sediments when these small particles sink. This process is called a "biological bomb" because carbon dioxide is transported from the atmosphere to the ocean floor.
Answer:
Explanation: Over the course of a year, areas near Earth’s equator receive more direct energy from the Sun than areas near Earth’s poles. Which of the following correctly describes one result of this heating pattern?
Answer:
The higher up an object is the greater its gravitational potential energy. ... As most of this GPE gets changed into kinetic energy, the higher up the object starts from the faster it will be falling when it hits the ground. So a change in gravitational potential energy depends on the height an object moves through.
Answer:
adding an acidic solution
Explanation:
Strong acids dissociate completely in water and the H⁺ ions react with the OH⁻ ions to make H₂O. If we add an acid to our solution of Ca(OH)₂, the acid protons would react with some of the OH⁻ ions and drive the equilibrium to the right. More of the solid Ca(OH)₂ should dissolve.
