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.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!!!! BEST ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!
Daniel [21]
Three examples would be gamma rays (usually these rays are emitted from unstable isotopes and can be used in nuclear experiments and testing) ultraviolent rays that are emitted from the sun and can cause sunburn and even skin cancer because the rays mutate the DNA in the skin cells nucleus. And also X-Rays, microwaves, and radio waves, which is usually harmless because it isn’t enough radiation to mutate DNA in our cells

I hope this is what you wanted
