Answer:

geosphere

Explanation:

Carbonated or limestone rocks are rocks consisting of calcite (calcium carbonate) and / or dolomite (calcium and magnesium carbonate). They may also contain impurities such as organic matter, silicates, phosphates, sulfides, sulfates, oxides and others. The carbonated rocks are formed by the diagenesis of carbonate rich sediments (> 80%), which sediments were deposited essentially by chemical precipitation in aqueous solution. These rocks participate in the carbon cycle, being part of the geosphere.

Carbon cycle is a biogeochemical cycle, that is, a process that ensures the recycling of carbon, enabling this element to interact with the environment and also with living beings. In this cycle we see how carbon moves through the atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The double membrane of the mitochondria is highly folded,and therefore wider when unfolded than that of the nucleus.This is an adaptive feature  to increase the surface area for reactions (electrochemical  gradient) by accommodating protons pumped into it by the proton motive force(PMF)  from the matrix to set up the electrochemical gradients needed to generate the energy needed by ATPase synthase enzymes for ATPs synthesis.

Required number of protons needed to be accommodated by the double membrane to generate enough energy for ATPase synthesis,therefore larger surface area is needed.
