Answer:

B.) A location for carbon dioxide storage

Explanation:

The word sink is used to describe a carbon sink . A carbon sink is a natural system or artificial deposit that absorb or store carbon dioxide thereby preventing them from going into the atmosphere. The well known natural carbon sinks are sea, plants and soil.

Plants is a vital natural system that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The plants uses this carbon dioxide for a process known as photosynthesis.  Some carbon is also transferred to the soil as plants die and decompose. Ocean is a major carbon dioxide storage. The sea dissolves this carbon dioxide.  

Artificial method have been developed to suck up this carbon dioxide from the atmosphere .The carbon dioxide are usually stored underground by a geological formation.

ElenaW [278]

<em>A) near warm water.</em>

<h3><em>Hurricanes, also called tropical cyclones form in seven distinct basins around the world. Some hurricane formation basins are much more active than others. Some tropical cyclone basins also have conditions in which tropical cyclones may occur over longer periods during the year. Most tropical cyclones form from a disturbance in the monsoon trough. The north Atlantic basin is considerably different, as the majority of hurricanes form from easterly waves originating from Africa.  Hurricanes and typhoons only can form over large basins of warm water such as an ocean or gulf. This is due to the fact that they need a large amount of energy which is supplied by the heat from the warm ocean waters evaporating into the atmosphere. Hurricanes also occur at least several degrees away from the equator. This is because the Coriolis force is too weak at the equator to generate spin for the hurricane to develop. </em></h3>

Answer:

1) pathway taken by water

water is absorbed from the soil, through the root hair cells and is transported by the xylem vessel up the stem to the leaf and/or flowers. From the leaf, some water is lost to the atmosphere as vapors escape out through the stoma present in the lower epidermal layer of the leaves.

2) water potential gradient

water potential refers to the concentration of water present. A gradient forms when there is a difference between the concentrations of water in two regions separated by a partially permeable membrane.

Hence, water moving down a water potential gradient means that it goes from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential.

3) There are tiny openings on the lower side of the leaves called as stomata (plural: stoma) that allow for gaseous exchange to occur. These openings are controlled by guard cells which are open during the day and close during the night.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
