Answer:

Carbon is an essential factor to the survival of living things.

Explanation:

It is produced as a waste by-product of metabolism in living organisms and combines with oxygen to be released as Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

Plants on the other hand require CO2 to process sunlight and nutrients into energy. They in return release oxygen which is required by animals to break down food.

Factories, businesses, people (as they generate electricity, transport people and goods, etc) release lots of carbon into the atmosphere it also combines with oxygen again to form C02.

The ocean and water bodies also serve as a collecting conduit of CO2, especially where the water temperature is relatively warm. When CO2 is captured by the ocean, it is used by some sea animals to make shells.

Cheers

Reptile [31]
The correct answer is letter (<span>C) The polar air mass moves south to replace the rising maritime tropical air mass.</span> These air masses are bringing cold air to warmer areas most especially during the winter and cool. These air masses are stable and usually does not form much cloud. While the Continental Polar air move down south, across the warmer land, the lower part of the air mass is modified and thus few clouds are formed.

______ make their own food by extracting compounds from the ocean.photoautotrophs,chemoautotrophs,cyanobacteria
Nezavi [6.7K]
<span>Both photoautotrophs and chemoautotrophs synthesize organic compounds from (inorganic) carbon dioxide, a process known as carbon fixation. Photoautotrophs get the energy to perform these reactions from light. Chemoautotrophs get it from electron donors such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. Cyanobacteria, by contrast, convert nitrogen from the atmosphere into ammonia, a process known as nitrogen fixation.</span>
