 Agonist are drugs that bind and activate a receptor with effecting the response.If the effect results in maximum response it is considered as full agonist. However if the drug that binds to the receptor results only into partial efficacy in relation to the full activation of the receptor, this is considered as partial agonist.

Antagonist are drugs that blocks a biologic response of a hormone or another drug. They usually have affinity to the receptors but has no efficacy. This drug will just inhibit the activation of the receptors by the aganist.

Answer:

C.  Oceans are carbon sinks because they store more carbon than they emit.

Explanation:

Oceans are carbon sinks because they store more carbon than they emit. Most of the carbon is produced in the respiration process as well as burning of fossil fuels. This carbon moves to the atmosphere and dissolved into the ocean which is required by the vegetation of ocean. Due to this carbon, vegetation produced more food for the organisms. About 25% of all CO2 emissions are absorbed by the ocean. Source is the part of a plant where materials are produced e.g. leaves whereas Sink refers to the part of the plant where the substrate can be stored e.g. roots or stem for starch.
