Answer:
At 0 years, an event took place which is known as metamorphosis of igneous rock i.e., formation of igneous rocks from melted magma.
Strontium-90 is a radioactive element which undergoes beta decay to form yttrium-90. It has a half life of approximately 28 years and decay energy of 0.546 MeV. This radioactivity is used by geologist to estimate the age of the rock, fossils, meteorites etc. Other radioactive elements used by the geologists are carbon-40, potassium-40 etc.
Radiometric clock is set when the rock was formed in the past i.e., the moment when an ingenious rock was solidified from molten magma.
Answer:
Crustaceans and Molluscs play an important role in the oceanic carbon sink.
Explanation:
Carbon sinks can serve to partially offset greenhouse gas emissions. Forests and oceans are both large carbon sinks. Algae is pressurized to bottom of the ocean by long term sequestration. Algae then falls to the bottom of the ocean and TRANSFORMS to fossil fuels.
- CO2 is not combustible.
- creates carbonic acid in the oceans.
- Reduces seawater pH, carbonate ion concentration, and thus calcium carbonate (needed for shells for marine creatures, contributes to BOTTOM-UP EFFECT)
