Answer:

Formation of fossil fuels which release carbon dioxide into the air

Explanation:

In the process of fossilization, the dead organic matter is decomposed by microorganisms such as bacteria etc. In the next stage , this decomposed dead organic matter get buried under the layer of earth. The new layers of sediments keep on depositing over the old layers beneath which decomposed dead organic matter lies. With the consequent action of temperature and pressure over the due course of time, the decomposed organic matter gets converted into fossil fuels such as crude coil, coal , natural gas etc. When these organic matter are burnt, carbon dioxide is released into the air and in this way the process of fossilization related to the carbon cycle

Estimate how much the brain would swell due to osmosis if the concentration of the cerebrospinal fluid fell to 280mm. in other w

Aleks04 [339]

Since the average osmotic pressure of the brain is 300mM and the concentration of the solution is 280mM, that means there is 20mM difference between the brain cells and CSF. This will induce osmosis and cause water to move from the CSF into the brain until the concentration becomes same. Assuming brain volume is 1200ml and the CSF constantly replaced, then the estimation of fluid should be: 20mM/300mM * 1200ml= 80 mlIf it made percent it should be: 80ml / 1200ml= 6.67%
