There are about 11,200,000 billion metric tons of O2 in the atmosphere. Based on an estimated photosynthesis rate of 600 billion

metric tons per year, how many years might it have taken to reach current O2 levels? (Note: Assume for this exercise that the rate of O2 production is constant even though it has changed over time.)

Answer:

t=18666.7years

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the rate at which oxygen is produced via photosynthesis is:

600 \frac{billion\ metric\ tons}{year}

Since the desired amount is 11,200,000 billion metric tons, the required time is:

t=\frac{11,200,000billion\ metric\ tons}{600 \frac{billion\ metric\ tons}{year}} \\\\t=18666.7years

Best regards.

Gnom [1K]

A parent with one non-functional copy of the gene is a carrier. Carriers for Cystic fibrosis will have no symptoms but they can pass the non-functioning gene on to their children.

<h3>What is cystic fibrosis?</h3>

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease and individual must inherit two non-functioning CF genes that is one from each parent to have CF. Both parents must have at least one copy of the defective gene and people who have only one copy of the defective CF gene are called carriers but they do not have the disease. Many couples who have a child with CF have no family history of cystic fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis affects cells that produce mucus, sweat, and digestive juices and also it causes these fluids to become thick and sticky. They block tubes, ducts, and passageways.

Symptoms include cough, repeated lung infections, inability to gain weight, and fatty stools. Treatments for this disease may ease symptoms and reduce complications.
