Most of the carbon in the earth is stored in the soil and air.

A) soil and air

<u>Explanation:</u>

Most of the carbon on earth is stored in rocks in the soil. There is approximately 2500 billion tons of carbon in the soil. The amount of carbon in the air is 800 billion tons and the amount of carbon found in plants and animals is 560 billion tons.

This clearly tells that most of the carbon in earth is stored in soil and air. The movement of carbon within the biosphere makes up the carbon cycle.

Receipt of extracellular signals can change cell behavior quickly (e.g., in seconds or less) or much more slowly (e.g., in hours
balandron [24]

Answer:

A. Molecular changes such as extracellular signals on extracellular ligands can result in quick changes in cell behaviour. One example is insulin. Upon insulin binding on the receptor on the cell membrane, the cell release GLUT4 transporters (for muscle cells) to increase uptake of glucose.

B. Slow changes in cell behaviour can be observed for other lipophilic hormones or intracellular receptors such as glucocoortoid or estrogen which reacts with receptors in the cells.

C. Insulin is required to maintain a constant blood glucose level and hence levels of insulin has to be mediated in correspondence to the blood glucose levels. Fast acting signalling is thus required for homeostasis of blood glucose levels. Where for such lipophilic hormones such as steriods, glucocortoid, these hormones tend to have a longer lasting effect and hence results in a slow change.

When this distorted magnetic field eventually snaps back, it accelerates electrified particles towards the Earth.
