1. SIMPLE DIFFUSION

Diffusion is the tendency of molecules to spread from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration.  This movement is due to a concentration gradient.  This is the difference in concentration between two different regions.  An example - when you spray perfume in the corner of a room and eventually you can smell it everywhere.

2. OSMOSIS

Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration.

The "geo" in biogeochemical refers to Earth where a chemical element can find.

terrestrial carbon cycle, the abiotic reservoir from which living organisms directly obtain their carbon is the atmosphere.

The formation of fossil fuels in the carbon cycle serves to:
pochemuha

Answer:

B. store excess carbon underground

Explanation:

The fossil fuels have been formed on the basis of organisms that have died, mostly producers. These organisms have carbon stored in them. As they died and got covered by sediments, the carbon has been stored in the lithosphere. Since more and more sediments have been covering the stored carbon, it has been isolated and stored into the lithosphere for tens or even hundreds of millions of years, thus contributing to lowering the amount of carbon in the atmosphere for quite some time, and removing it from its natural cycle.

Would someone help me and please describe the structure of the chloroplast and the function of each component? Thank you!
