Studying evolutionary relationship among organisms
Answer: Hey again!
Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Elemental form of carbon means the pure form of carbon, that is, carbon is present in its natural form.
An elemental form also means that the pure atoms are not attached to any other atom.
For example, diamond is an allotrope of carbon in which there are only carbon atoms attached to each other and no other atom is present in it.
Whereas methane has carbon and hydrogen atoms attached to each other therefore, it is not an elemental carbon. And proteins include different atoms attached to each other.
Thus, we can conclude that diamond is an example of elemental carbon.

Answer:
There are about 300 different types of species, but we've not explored even more than 50% of the ocean
Explanation:
Answer:
The carbon cycle, as the nitrogen cycle, occurs in all the spheres: Biosphere, Atmosphere, Geosphere and Hydrosphere.
Explanation:
Most Earth events involve interaction between multiple spheres. For example, rain is the movement of water (the hydrosphere) from the atmosphere to the lithosphere where it collects in lakes, rivers, or streams. Water is an important resource for inhabitants of the biosphere.
The Atmosphere-contains all the air in Earth's system. The upper portion of the atmosphere protects the organisms of the biosphere from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. It also absorbs and emits heat. This sphere is also where weather occurs.
The nitrogen cycle occurs in all the spheres and ecosystems. It passes through rocks, water, atmosphere, plants, etc.
In atmosphere and biosphere: Nitrogen is about 78% of the gases in the atmosphere an it’s a essential component of the living organisms. It enters plants through the microorganisms that convert this nitrogen into ammonia. After this conversion, the plants absorb this substance. It can pass to animals when they eat these plants. Then, when they urinate, bacteria convert ammonia to nitrogen again and it returns to the atmosphere.
