MAKE CONNECTIONS Refer to the discussion of oceanacidification in Concept 3.3. Ocean acidification andchanges in the distribution of C3 and C4 plants may seemto be two very different problems, but what do theyhave in common? Explain.
MAKE CONNECTIONS As noted in Figure 52.15, theaddition of nutrients to a lake can cause an algal bloom.When these algae die, complex molecules in their bodiesare broken down by decomposers using aerobic respiration. Explain why this would reduce the lake’s oxygenlevels (see Concept 9.1)
Questions 6-9 are all based on the data shown here in Question 6.
The plot shows leaf-level gas exchange data for two species that differ in their photosynthetic
pathway. Each point is a different leaf measured at a different time throughout the day, but the
data were measured under the same atmospheric humidity and CO2 concentrations.

- As CO2 concentrations increase in the atmosphere, biologists continue to explore the role of respiration from plants as a small but potentially important contribution beyond fossil fuel combustion. The data in the Table were collected from the leaf of a sagebrush plant from a semiarid ecosystem in Wyoming, enclosed in a chamber that measures the rate of CO2 exchange. The respiration rate is the amount of CO2 in micromoles lost by the leaf per square meter per second, which results in the negative numbers. The temperature values are from the leaves as they are heated or cooled during the measurements.

Model/diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in the global ecosystem. You will need to create TWO models/diagrams of the sources and sinks of carbon. In the first model diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a natural, pre-industrial landscape. In the second model, diagram the sources and sinks of carbon in a landscape altered by human activity and industry. Finally, write a few short sentences on what you would expect the atmospheric levels of CO2 to be in each model and why they would or would not be similar.arrow_forwardsupport or refute the following statements based on what you learned about energy flow, biogeochemical cycling, decomposition, trophic levels, and keystone species. You may add a diagram or illustration to support your answer. Planting mangroves is better than putting dolomite sand on the coast of the polluted Manila Bay.arrow_forward
- WIII save this response. Question 10 Which correctly describes the atmospheric cycle of CO2 concentrations in various places in the world? O the global CO2 concentration remain stable throughout the year the CO2 concentration in the southern and northern hemisphere cycle at the same time of the year O the CO2 concentration has larger annual fluctuations in the southern hemisphere because of the larger ocean area O the CO, concentration has larger annual fluctuations in the northern hemisphere because of the larger land area A Moving to another question will save this response.arrow_forwardwhat can we do to help reduce the amount of pollutants such as CO, SO2, NO2, HCl, NO3 in the atmosphere which alleviate Global warming? please explainarrow_forwardBackground: One of the main drivers of climate change is the emissions of carbon dioxide gas into the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels. This has altered the global carbon cycle. using the link below to watch https://youtu.be/xk11DVaAjEA PROMPT: 1) What role does photosynthesis paly in the global carbon cycle? 2) What are fossil fuels and how are they altering the global carbon cycle? 3. Learn about carbon sequestration. Briefly explain what it is and how it can help to mitigate the impacts of climate change. Post a link an example of where/how this is being implemented.arrow_forward

Create a model which accurately, in detail, depicts the potential pathways of carbon (biomass) and energy in an ecosystem with at least five trophic levels (don’t forget your decomposers, they can count as one trophic level). Make sure to incorporate the multiple pathways that biomass and energy could take at each trophic level. Lastly, clearly illustrate how carbon and energy flow in this ecosystem. Be sure to include adequate levels of detail for all pathways and differentiate the flow of carbon and energy in your model.arrow_forward
