Answer:

Oceans and soils

Explanation:

Carbon sink is a natural carbon reservoir which is responsible for the <u>absorption and storage of the carbon containing chemical compounds</u> by using physical and biological mechanisms. This process is also known as carbon sequestration, as it involves the removal of carbon dioxide from the Earth's atmosphere.

Currently, <u>Oceans</u> are the largest carbon sinks on Earth, followed by <u>soils</u>.

Explain in your own words how chlorophyll makes a leaf look green
rusak2 [61]
In simple terms, chlorophyll makes a leaf look green because it reflects only green light. Answering in a more detailed fashion, chlorophyll is a pigment. As a pigment it absorbs some wavelengths of visible light, (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet are the colors of visible light), while reflecting others. In specific, chlorophyll absorbs all other colors of light but green, which it reflects. It is this reflection of green light that cause a leaf to appear green.

Review the table below. Note the exchange rates for dates in January of 2008 and 2013. You will use the information in the table
Sindrei [870]
          2008                                          2013
U.S. $1 = 1.00 CAD               U.S. $1 = 0.99 CAD
U.S. $1 = 39.41 INR              U.S. $1 = 54.80 INR
U.S. $1 = 0.69 EUR               U.S. $1 = 0.76 EUR
<span>U.S. $1 = 6.78 ZAR                U.S. $1 = 8.46 ZAR

When you travel, it is better to visit a currency exchange and have your foreign currency exchange into the local or national currency of the country you are visiting. Cash transactions will be easily done once local currency is used. You don't need to worry about the exchange rate every time you purchase a commodity.

2013: US$ 1 = 54.80 INR

$25 x 54.80 INR/$1 = 1,370 INR

2013: US$ 1 = 0.99 CAD

$25 x 0.99CAD/$1 = 24.75 CAD

It would be cheaper to buy products in South Africa than in European Union. This is because the US dollar has a higher value in South Africa than in the European Union.

It would be cheaper to buy the product in 2008 because the value of US dollars in India is lower compared to its value in 2013.
