Answer: Carbon is one of the most important chemical, non-metallic element that is considered to be the fundamental unit, making up the organic life. Carbon is present in almost all the living beings existing on earth.

Carbon plays a significant role in the carbon cycle. It transfers from plants to the animals or organisms as one consumes the plants, vegetables that are around us and further released into the atmosphere from the bodies of the living creatures during exhalation. This continuous transformation of carbon from one place to another is regarded as the carbon cycle.

What is agricultural monoculture and why is that bad for crops?
Katarina [22]
<h2>EXPLANATION:</h2>

<h3>Modern monoculture requires vast amounts of rain for irrigating crops as moisture retention is limited in the soil. A lack of topsoil also increases rain runoff. To achieve this vast amount of extra water it means draining from lakes, rivers, and reservoirs, which is exhausting natural resources and aquatic ecosystems.</h3>

How does sun provide us with the energy we need to run our bodies?
dusya [7]
Well, the high energy and heat found in the photons of sunlight allow plants to make their own food, sustaining them long enough to be eaten by us, or to be eaten by animals about to be eaten by us. Plus we get direct warmth from the sun. These things mean that the sun is what keeps all organisms alive in the first place.
