The correct answer is option b, that is, the addition of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
If the concentration of carbon dioxide upsurges in the atmosphere due to the enhanced rate of outgassing, there will be a constant elevation in the global temperature. The elevating temperature and more dissolved carbon dioxide will result in enhanced weathering of crystal rocks as a consequence of faster rate of reactions and greater acidity.
The best option for this question is: '<span>It increases the amount of runoff</span>'. Plant life acts as a barrier to the overland flow of water, thereby slowing the flow and allowing increased infiltration of water into the soil. Deforestation and overgrazing are major contributors to erosion, as plants act to bind the soil, and their removal allows the combination of looser soil and increased runoff to move masses of sediment into rivers and lakes. Deforestation will in fact decrease transpiration and percolation and precipitation rather than increase them.
It is <u>TRUE</u> that multiple polypeptides joined together represents the tertiary level of protein organization.
An example of homeostasis would be sweating when the temperature is hot.
