Answer:

A. is stored after removal from the atmosphere

Explanation:

A carbon sink is a place where carbon is stored after removal from the atmosphere. Carbon is stored in a carbon sink when they are removed from the atmosphere.

A carbon sink are reservoir (usually natural) where carbon is stored. Carbon sink store carbon because of their ability to absorb more carbon. Examples of carbon sinks are plants and water. Plants and water has the capability to absorb more quantity of carbon from the atmosphere and release less quantity of carbon.

Carbon is a chemical elements represented by the symbol C. It has the atomic number 6 and belongs to group 14 of the periodic table.

What are the characteristics of red light, which is absorbed by chlorophylls?
Lilit [14]
<span><span>There are choices for this question namely:

A. Its photons have the shortest wavelength in the visual spectrum
B. Its photons have the highest energy in the visual spectrum
C. Its photons have the longest wavelength in the visual spectrum
D. It is not considered a part of the visual spectrum

The correct answer is that </span>its photons have the longest wavelength in the visual spectrum<span>. Chlorophyll, being green in color (around 495 to 590 nm wavelength), reflects this wavelength; not absorbed. Mostly, the chlorophyll absorbs longer wavelengths of light such as red (around 680 nm wavelength) and blue to violet (around 400 to 480 nm wavelnegth). </span></span>

Alex

Answer:

Juan

Explanation:

Given the information from the question. We need to find out which person will get the best resolution and the reason thereafter. Since we know that the resolution is directly proportional or relative to N (A). Based on the information provided .Juan will have the best resolution due to higher N (A).

In your own words Describe how autotrophs and heterotrophs obtain energy. please this answer must be at least 150 words any one
blsea [12.9K]

The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.

Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers.  They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.

Some are photo-hetrotrophs,  who use light as energy but cannot use carbon  dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.
