Answer: A) The decomposition of primary minerals

Explanation:

The chemical weathering is the process in which the rocks and minerals are break down by the chemical reaction. Then, it lead to the decomposition of primary minerals into other minerals.

Weathering is the chemical and physical process that change the state of chemical process in the surface of earth. Chemical weathering dissolve by the chemical process which basically form the residual materials.

This process cause rust when the iron react with the oxygen in the rocks and then it form iron oxide.

Answer:

A) The decomposition of primary mineral

Explanation:

   Chemical weathering is the set of chemical reactions that alter the minerals that make up rocks. It is characterized by chemical transformations arising from the pressure and temperature differences of the rocks. The environment in which rocks form is often different from the earth's surface. Thus, when these rock formations surface, they encounter conditions and elements such as water and oxygen that make their minerals chemically unstable. To stabilize, they undergo chemical transformations, altering their composition. In these cases, it is possible to observe the modification of soils or rocks, when they change their appearance or composition, becoming wetter or drier, for example.

A fundamental concept of ecology is that living organisms
Archy [21]
A fundamental concept of ecology is that living organisms are both similar to and different from each other and from nonliving things. Living things are similar in that they rely on many of the same processes to stay alive, yet are different in the ways that these processes are carried out. Non living things lack certain features of living organisms, such as the ability to maintain a cellular organization, carry out metabolic activity while maintaining internal stability (homeostasis) and pass on hereditary information through reproduction.

Where did the original atmospheric oxygen come from
faust18 [17]

The correct answer is - cyanobacteria.

The atmospheric oxygen came from the cyanobacteria. These were one of the earliest living organisms on Earth. The cyanobacteria was using photosynthesis in order to create its own food. The photosynthesis process requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, and oxygen. The oxygen is mostly released as a waste product from the process of photosynthesis, thus the cyanobacteria were literally releasing oxygen that was ending up into the atmosphere. As more and more cyanobacteria there were across the planet, more and more oxygen they were releasing into the atmosphere, slowly changing the composition of the atmosphere, and setting the basis of it as we know it now.
