Question

Using the diagram above, answer the following questions:

6. True or False. The arrow labeled C represents a transfer of chemical energy to mechanical energy. Explain why this is true or false.

7. True or False. The arrow labeled A represents a transfer of solar energy to chemical energy. Explain why this is true or false.

8. Which arrow or arrows represent a release of carbon dioxide? What process is occurring at the arrow(s) you selected?

9. Which arrow or arrows indicate a process that cycles carbon from living or nonliving organisms? Describe the process or processes you selected.

10. Which arrow or arrows represent reactions that demonstrate a conservation of mass and energy? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

6. false.

chemical energy to heat and mechanical. Mechanical that runs the factory in the

photo, and Heat energy that rises up in the atmosphere to join the other carbon

molecules in the air. 7. True. The arrow letter A is the transfer of solar power

from the sun, to a chemical reaction to produce food for the plant, which is

called photosynthesis. The leaves in the plant has chlorophyll that absorbs light

energy and transforms it to food.8. The answer would be letter C and F. C because It is

during the burning of the fossil fuels that the carbon dioxide is release into

the atmosphere. When burning the fossil fuels the carbon that was inside the

fossils is released. This also happens with diesel and other forms of natural

gas. While, F is because plant

respiration releases some of the carbon remains of the photosynthesis. While

plants do absorb carbon dioxide, part of their end product also includes reformed

carbon dioxide. Most of the other processes in the phot uses carbon or absorbs

carbon dioxide to aid their sustenance.9. A carbon cycle for living things would be A or B to F

wherein the plants absorb carbon dioxide to aid their production of food, and

then releasing carbon dioxide again as a by product of their food production.

This also happen to aquatic plants.An example of a non-living carbon cycle would be, D or E to

C. This would be the absorption of the carbon on our sea waters or to our soil,

this then gets trapped in there until it is release like through the forms of

fossil fuel burning.10. The law of conservation of mass and energy states that

matter can neither be created nor destroyed, this is very much evident in the

carbon cycle. Because the carbon from the light energy from the sun, or in our

atmosphere, ends up back to our atmosphere just to continue its cycle. The fact

that the carbon cycle is a cycle not just a linear equation proves that energy

can neither be created nor destroyed.

Answer 2

6. True. In this photo C is the both a transformation of chemical energy to heat and mechanical. Mechanical that runs the factory in the photo, and Heat energy that rises up in the atmosphere to join the other carbon molecules in the air.

7. True. The arrow letter A is the transfer of solar power from the sun, to a chemical reaction to produce food for the plant, which is called photosynthesis. The leaves in the plant has chlorophyll that absorbs light energy and transforms it to food.
