Answer:

      Carbon is the foundation of all life on Earth, required to form complex molecules like proteins and DNA. Carbon helps to regulate the Earth's temperature, makes all life possible, is a key ingredient in the food that sustains us, and provides a major source of the energy to fuel our global economy. The carbon cycle describes the process in which carbon atoms continually travel from the atmosphere to the Earth and then back into the atmosphere. Since our planet and its atmosphere form a closed environment, the amount of carbon in this system does not change. Where the carbon is located in the atmosphere or on Earth is constantly in flux.

       On Earth, most carbon is stored in rocks and sediments, while the rest is located in the ocean, atmosphere, and in living organisms. Carbon is released back into the atmosphere when organisms die, volcanoes erupt, fires blaze, fossil fuels are burned, and through a variety of other mechanisms. In the case of the ocean, carbon is continually exchanged between the ocean's surface waters and the atmosphere, or is stored for long periods of time in the ocean depths. Humans play a major role in the carbon cycle through activities such as the burning of fossil fuels or land development. As a result, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is rapidly rising; it is already considerably greater than at any time in the last 800,000 years.

An example of natural selection is the tail of a male peacock. The females of the species choose mates based on the colors of th
Lera25 [3.4K]
Since the means of reproduction have changed, the population of peacocks would probably start losing their pretty feather colors due to the fact that over time females would be mating with the containing the other trait (and possibly not the pretty feathers). This would then produce offspring with ugly colors but also with the desired trait. This would continue on and on until those with the desired trait outnumbered or possibly extinguished the now unnecessary vibrant feather colors.
