Answer:
C Volcanic activity releasing carbon into the atmosphere.
Explanation:
The statement that best describes the cycling of carbon between the atmosphere and geosphere among the options is volcanic activity that leads to releasing carbon into the atmosphere.
Volcanic activities has to do with the activity of the geological layer of the earth that leads to the emission of gases, eruption of lava or the combination of the two.
When a volcanic activity leads to the release of carbon related gases such as carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, carbon is being circulated between the geosphere (the earth) and the atmosphere (the air).
Hence, the correct option is C.
Answer:
(A) While not important in the diet of raccoons or striped skunks, ground squirrels are a significant source of food for other waterfowl-nest predators.
Explanation:
According to the passage, some predators of waterfowl nests prey opportunistically on songbird nests. Therefore, some wildlife management procedures directed at waterfowl, such as habitat enhancement or restoration, may also benefit songbirds. However, some procedures such as predator control may not always lead to benefits for the songbirds. For example, some predators of waterfowl nests such as raccoon and striped skunks are not predators of small mammals such as mice and ground squirrels who themselves are predators of songbird nests. So removing the striped skunk and raccoons from the habitat of the waterfowl and songbird nests, may not bring any benefit whatsoever to the songbirds. However, many other predators of waterfowl nests are also predators of squirrels and mice.
