Answer: Life would cease to exist.
Explanation:
The carbon elements is one of the most important elements in the compound that make up living organisms. It is found: in the remains of living organisms; as fossil fuels such as coal, coke and natural gas; as inorganic salts such as carbonates; in water bodies and as gas carbondioxide which makes up 0.03% of air.
Carbon is continuously being circulated in the atmosphere through a process called the CARBON CYCLE. This involves the removal and addition of carbon to the carbondioxide in the atmosphere.
Life would indeed cease to exist if this carbon cycle stops due to the importance of carbon to functioning of living organisms. Important processes which bring about the recycling of carbon between living ( biotic) and non living (abiotic) components of an ecosystem are:
--> photosynthesis: the process used by green plants to remove carbon through carbondioxide from the atmosphere for manufacturing of their food.
--> respiration: animals respire to break down sugar leading to liberation of carbondioxide and water as wastes
--> and decay: decomposers feeds on remains and waste to bring about decay, thus complex carbon compounds are broken down to set free carbondioxide which returns to the atmosphere.
All the above processes are carried out by living organisms to maintain a functioning ecosystem by enabling a linear flow of energy through it.
Answer:
<u>Sulfites</u> are the chemical food preservatives which used in the wine industry but may cause asthmatic reactions in some individuals .
Explanation:
A chemical food preservative is a chemical species which are added to a product such as the beverages , food , drugs , paints , wood etc , to prevent the process of degradation by microbes .
Sulfite is also an example of chemical food preservatives , sulfites helps the food from turning brown , in the presence of air .
Apart from helping the food from degrading , it too have same life - threatening symptoms for some people suffering from asthma .
Symptoms are - breathing difficulty , stomach cramps , tightness in the chest area , diarrhea .
Sulfites are used as a food preservatives in , wine , dried fruits , frozen potato , certain jams .
