Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The three human activities that cause generation of carbon dioxide have to be described.  Also two major mechanisms that absorb carbon dioxide from atmosphere have to be listed.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
How the CO2 will disperse and react once released into the ocean?
The U.S. is one of several countries committed to reaching “net-zero” carbon emissions by 2050. This means that by 2050, all carbon dioxide emissions must be matched by the amount of carbon dioxide removed from the air. Why is it essential for all countries in the world to meet carbon reduction commitments like this
Analysis of nitrogen present in organic materials could be analyzed by converting nitrogen to Section а. Nitrate b. Nitrite c. Ammonia d. Ammonium
