Explanation: The water cycle is also known as the hydrological cycle. It describes how water moves on, above, or just below the surface of our planet. Water molecules move between various locations - such as rivers, oceans and the atmosphere - by specific processes. Water can change state. Nitrogen compounds found in cells include proteins. Nitrogen from the air is converted into soluble ions that plant roots can absorb. It forms part of nitrogen compounds in the plants, and is then passed from one organism to the next. It is returned to the atmosphere as nitrogen gas. This is the nitrogen cycle. The carbon-oxygen cycle is the process by which plants use carbon dioxide for respiration during photosynthesis and produce oxygen. During this process, carbon dioxide becomes part of the plant, and when the plant dies in a carbon-rich state it is possible for it to become a fossil fuel.
<u>Answer:</u>
is an inorganic compound.
<u>Solution:</u>
- Firstly, all the known definitions of organic compounds excludes Carbonic acid and it's salt from organic compounds except if 'C' is present in the cation.
- Secondly, Sodium is a metal which organic compounds cannot posses as a compound.
- Lastly, there is absence of C-H bond which is present in all the organic compounds.
Hence, we can conclude that is an inorganic compound though there is presence of Carbon atom in it.

Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
In 1972, the fluid mosaic model was proposed by S. J. Singer and G. L. Nicolson to describe the structure of the plasma membrane found I living cells. The model describes the plasma membrane to possess components including phospholipid, proteins and cholesterol.
The phospholipid is arranged in two layers comprising of glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate group. The fatty acids which forms the tail are hydrophobic (water-fearing) while the phosphate group is water-loving (hydrophobic) giving the plasma membrane an AMPHIPATHIC nature. The other component as proposed by the model are membrane proteins and cholesterol, all responsible for the fluidity of the membrane.
