Answer:
The main natural carbon sinks are plants, the ocean and soil. Plants grab carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to use in photosynthesis; some of this carbon is transferred to soil as plants die and decompose. The oceans are a major carbon storage system for carbon dioxide.

Answer:
<em>Clostridium perfringens</em>
Explanation:
<em>Clostridium perfringens</em> is a bacterium characterized by being a large, gram-positive, boxcar-shaped bacillus.
It is part of the facultative aerobic bacteria group (they can survive both in the presence or absence of oxygen) and is also a spore-forming bacterium (spores are small structures capable of generating new bacteria).
<em>Clostridium perfringens</em> can cause food poisoning, which results from the ingestion of contaminated food (usually meat and animal products) by the bacteria.
Once in the small intestine, the bacteria releases the toxin that usually causes diarrhea.
Polymerase chain reaction to amplify the DNA would be the technique used in the blood lab.
