This is what is commonly know as 'peat'. Peat is found in peatlands, bogs, mires and moors, and is an accumulation of partially decayed vegetation or organic matter. The decay is slowed down by a lack of oxygen due to waterlogged conditions. These areas are very important carbon sinks as the CO2 released by the decaying matter is trapped within the peat. It requires thousands of years for peatland to develop. Peatlands are very important as they provide a record of past vegetation and climate within the preserved plant remains.
Answer:
Properties Of Carbon :
Explanation:
Carbon:
Symbol: C
Electronic Configuration: 2 , 4
Valency : 4 (Tetra-valency)
Occurrence in nature →Earth's crust → 0.02% in the form of minerals like carbonates, coal, petroleum.
In atmosphere -0.03% in carbon dioxide is ( gaseous form)
Properties of carbon:
- Carbon forms Covalent is bonding and Covalent compounds wwhich do not conduct electricity.
- Carbon has three allotropes i.e Diamond, Graphite and Fullerenes.
- In diamond carbon atoms bonded together in tetrahedral lattice arrangement.
- In graphite carbon atoms are bonded together in sheets of hexagonal lattice.
- In Fullerenes ccarbon atoms are bonded together in spherical, tubular, or ellipsoidal forms.
- Carbon plays a major role in organic compounds.
- Carbon is a Tetravalency. (valency :4)
- So that it is easily share the electrons so that it gives a possibility of large number of compounds. Carbon compounds are also called as organic compounds. Carbon compounds are also called organic compounds.
Identify the stage of cellular respiration in which each of the FOLLOWING takes place.
Where are the FOLLOWING ???
The spelling
Explanation:
Similarities are they can still produce flowers or fruits and differences are old plants may be weak and shorter life span...
Number 1: The Circulatory System is a vast network that contains organs and vessels.
number 2: Arteries have a thick wall which helps a powerful pressure from the heart.
number 3: Without the Circulatory System the body wouldn't be unable to maintain a internal environment.
number 4: The Circulatory and Respiratory system both have gas to help a or animal live in there internal environment.
number 5: Blood vessels brings oxygen to the tissues and absorbs carbon dioxide and other waste products to clear the lungs. And with out oxygen the tissues won't absorb carbon dioxide to clear out the lungs.
number 6: D
