Using the image below, describe in at least 2 paragraphs, what is happening with the arrows. Name and explain the processes and
the changing forms of Carbon. To conclude, predict what the numbers might represent. Photo Credit:NASA/GLOBE Program
Below is a suggestion for how your paragraphs should be laid out, and which terms to include in each paragraph:
Paragraph one: Places where carbon is being added to the atmosphere (processes to include here could be things like burning, respiration, decay, weathering, and run off).
Paragraph two: Places where carbon is being pulled out of the atmosphere (steps here might be photosynthesis, sinking, diffusion, sedimentation, depositing, and storage).
Finally, come up with a hypothesis (an educated guess) of what the numbers in the arrows might mean?
The group of elements on the periodic table that does not participate in chemical bonding at all would be the noble gas elements. These either do not give, receive, and or share electrons.
