4 0

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Autotrophs utilize the energy from  sunlight to reduce carbon dioxide to carbohydrates (glucose). The energy from the sunlight is used to split water into H+ and O2- and the H+ used in the reduction process. The labeled carbon in the carbon dioxide will, therefore, be incorporated by the autotrophs in the carbohydrates made in photosynthesis.

Explain how the copper could be in the lake sample near the picnic area but not have been detected by this test.
Masja [62]

Answer:

May be the instrument is incorrect or may be error in it.

Explanation:

The copper have not been detected by this test because the test may be not for the detection of copper, may be it is used for identification of another minerals. If there is copper in the lake sample but can't be detected in the test so it means that the instrument which is used for detection is not the right one  or having error in that instrument. Every mineral has a specific type of instrument that detect its presence, if we use incorrect instrument for the mineral then we can't detect the presence of that specific mineral.
