Answer:

Photosynthesis and Organisms respiration

Explanation:

Carbon exchange is known as the Carbon cycle, In this cycle, the biosphere and the atmosphere are in constant interaction because of the different organisms that use carbon in some way. Plants are able to capture the CO2 of the atmosphere and transform the carbon to energy and oxygen through Photosynthesis. Also, plants liberate the Glucose produced in Photosynthesis to stimulate plant growth through a process called Plant respiration.

Photosynthesis exchanges about 120 gigatons of carbon per year and with plant respiration´s 60 gigatons of carbon per year they are the two largest exchange processes between biosphere and atmosphere.

Order the events to describe a rock's progression from igneous to
valentinak56 [21]

Explanation:

Lava Cools on the side of a volcano

Storms erode the hardened lava

Particles of hardened water settle at the bottom of lakes

Layers of sediments bond underwater

Plate movement bakes sedimentary layers.

 

 Since the transition is from igneous to sedimentary to metamorphic rocks;

  • Lava which is magma or molten rock that reaches the surface cools and solidifies to form a volcano.
  • Weathering and erosion of the volcano then proceeds and sediments are formed
  • The sediments are further carried underwater where they harden at bottom of lakes.
  • Layers of the sediments bond and cements together underwater to form sedimentary rocks.
  • Tectonic activities further bakes the layers to form metamorphic rocks.

A radioactive isotope, Phlebotinum, decays into Dilithium with a half-life of 42 million years. If we find a rock with 25% Phleb
sineoko [7]

Answer:

time taken for 25% Phlebotinum and  75% Dilithium is 168 million years

Explanation:

radioactive isotope of Phlebotinum decays into Dilithium.

time taken to half life takes = 42 million years

half life means that the Phlebotinum is 50% and  Dilithium is also 50%

and now it is given that  Phlebotinum is 25% and Dilithium is 75%

hence this condition will come after two half lives.

for one half life it takes  42 million years

and for second half life time becomes 4 times of first half life

time for 25% Phlebotinum and  75% Dilithium is  = 4 × 42

     =  168 million years.

hence time taken for 25% Phlebotinum and  75% Dilithium is 168 million years
