If the cells stop dividing and do not spread, the tumor is benign
One consequence of CFCS pollution is increased rates of skin cancer in humans.
Cholofluorocarbons cause the breakdown of the ozone layer that protects the earth from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. Once in the atmosphere, CFCs drift slowly upward to the stratosphere, where they are brojken up by ultraviolet radiation, releasing the chlorine that catalytically destroys ozone.

Answer:
<em>The total amount of energy transferred during photosynthesis for this ecosystem equals</em><em> 260,000 kcal/m2/yr.</em>
Explanation:
To answer this question, we need to know that
- gross primary productivity (GPP) = energy captured and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis
- net primary productivity (NPP) = difference between GPP and respiration rate
So, to calculate GPP we need to sum NPP to Respiration rate. This if,
NPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr
R = 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
NPP = GPP – Respiration
Then,
GPP = NPP + R
GPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr + 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
GPP = 260,000 kcal/m2/yr
