Answer:

Dimetrodon (/daɪˈmiːtrədɒn/ (About this soundlisten) or /daɪˈmɛtrədɒn/, meaning "two measures of teeth") is an extinct genus of non-mammalian synapsid that lived during the Cisuralian (Early Permian), around 295–272 million years ago (Ma).It is a member of the family Sphenacodontidae. The most prominent feature of Dimetrodon is the large neural spine sail on its back formed by elongated spines extending from the vertebrae. It walked on four legs and had a tall, curved skull with large teeth of different sizes set along the jaws. Most fossils have been found in southwestern United States, the majority coming from a geological deposit called the Red Beds of Texas and Oklahoma. More recently, fossils have been found in Germany. Over a dozen species have been named since the genus was first erected in 1878.

Two ways that carbon can get from the ocean to the lithosphere
Ludmilka [50]

1. Burning of fossil fuels.

Under natural conditions the release of carbon from fossil fuels occurs slowly, as they are sub ducted into the mantle, and CO2 is released through volcanic activity. However, humans are heavily reliant on fossil fuels, and extract it from the lithosphere in great quantities. Put in to fire a coal, oil, natural gas, and other fossil fuels – for industrial movement and power generation for example, neglect the carbon from the fossil fuels and emits it as CO2 into the atmosphere.

2. Land use and land cover change (e.g. deforestation)

Big part of carbon are stored in living plants. Then, land use changes, most importantly the clearance of forests (which are very densely inhabited by plants, and therefore contain a large amount of carbon), can influence the carbon cycle in two ways. Firstly, removing of vegetation will let the plants die which would otherwise be capturing carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. And as dense forests are change by crops/pasture land/built environments, there is usually a net decrease in the carbon store, as smaller plants (and worse still, concrete) store far less carbon than large trees. Deforestation also make much more soil to be eroded, and carbon stored in the soil is rapidly taken into rivers.

 

<span>Because the nature is in cycle of the carbon cycle, humans are affected and cause the lead to a number of amplifications and feedbacks. Thereby releasing more CO2 to the atmosphere. Increases in global temperature also affect ocean temperatures, modifying oceanic ecosystems and having the potential to disrupt the oceanic carbon cycle, limiting the ocean’s capability to absorb and store carbon.</span>

Hi. Help needed .

Answer:

Permeable membranes allow anything to pass through.

Impermeable membranes have a poor permeable rate or nothing can pass through.

Semipermeable membranes select or allow only certain substances to pass through.

Explanation:

Permeable Membranes:

  • Window screen - can pass water and air through 100%
  • Mesh - can pass water and air through 100%

Impermeable Membranes:

  • Clay - permeability rate is extremely low, and water cannot pass through
  • Ziplock bag - nothing can come in or out

Semipermeable Membranes:

  • Plant and Animal cell membranes (lipid bilayer) - only certain substances can pass through, like soluble vitamins
  • Cell Organelle Membranes - only certain substances can pass through the mitochondria, for example
