d. carbon atoms in ocean water

Explanation:

The carbon atoms in ocean water is one of the ways through which carbon is sequestered in nature.

Sequestration of carbon implies the storage of carbon either naturally or artificially for a very long time.

Carbon sequestration cuts off carbon from the normal biogeochemical cycle and stores it in natural reservoirs for a very long duration.

In nature, carbon is sequestered a whole lot through biological and chemical activities.
Phytoplanktons are food producers. When consumed by higher organisms, their organic materials which contains carbon can become sequestered when the consumer dies and falls to the bottom of the ocean.
Organisms that used carbonate to manufacture their shells in the ocean also sequesters carbon.

URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!Which are examples of convection currents? Check all that apply.

Aloiza [94]

I believe a pot of water that is being heated by a electric burner. This is because the warmer water moves to the top and the cooler water moves down to the bottom of the pot. This causes a circular motion. The next example of convection heat is a hot air ballon rising and falling in the atmosphere. A radiator is also because the hot air is drawn out the top and the cooler air is drawn to the bottom.

Christy is slowly developing an impairment in her ability to perform finely coordinated movements, such as cutting garlic into v

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Cerebellum

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various neurologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the doctors will likely find Christy's problem in the Cerebellum which is located in the Hindbrain. The Cerebellum is responsible for coordinates voluntary movements such as posture, balance, coordination, and speech, resulting in smooth and balanced muscular activity. A problem with the Cerebellum can impair movements similar to what Christy is experiencing.

One example of how applied science has had a direct effect on daily life is the presence of vaccines. Vaccines to prevent diseas

Mashutka [201]

Vaccines are a boon in eradicating various lethal diseases and increase the immunity of the people. The development of vaccines started with the understanding the cell itself, various pathways that regulate its fate. The immunology, a branch of biological science, gave the idea of the working of the defense or the immune system of the body, and of the various specia cells that function for it. This led us to the discovery of antibodies and antigens. Vaciines are artificial means of injecting antigens into the body to generate antibodies beforehand, so that the immune system remembers producing it at the time disease causing agent strikes us.

Thus, we can summarise that STEM research or core science research has led to innovations that have shaped our lives and lifestyle to contribute to an overall good social health.

Select all that apply.

Pure water is very close to a pH of 7. The Great Salt Lake (from what I've read about) can range from 8.2 to 7.7 in different areas. Saliva is between 6.5 and 7.5. And ammonia has a pH of 11.
So the items that have a pH between 5 and 8 are pure water, saliva, and possibly the Great Salt Lake.
