What are impacts of human intervention on the carbon cycle?

Increasing anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels, alongside the increase in agricultural processes and transport have increased the warming effect of the atmosphere.

Levels of carbon dioxide are increased further by deforestation to provide land for agriculture and for housing. This reduces the carbon store potential and releases stored biosphere carbon to the atmosphere.

There are three main mitigation strategies in response to the impacts of climate change:

1. Reducing carbon emissions through low carbon technology – prioritising renewable energy resources, recycling, minimising energy use and implementing energy conservation measures. Agreed international caps, protocols and laws to stabilise, then reduce atmospheric carbon emissions. Carbon trading schemes reward emitters that reduce carbon emissions and penalise those that continue to release CO2. These can include both enforced and voluntary measures.

2. Carbon capture through reforestation (planting on cleared forest land) and afforestation (planting on land that hasn’t previously had forest) schemes. Some carbon trading schemes pay land-owners to plant forests to absorb the equivalent of CO2 that is released by emitters elsewhere on the planet.

3. Carbon capture when fossil fuels are burnt and the emission gas is artificially sequestered (buried) in underground rocks, such as depleted oil and gas fields.

autosomal

explanation:

is a term used in genetic genealogy to describe dna which is inherited from the autosomal chromosomes

interphase   is the cell cycle stage in which the cell acquires nutrients, creates and uses proteins and other molecules and starts the process of cell division by replicating the dna. it is the longest stage in the eukaryote cell cycle.

the following   can go wrong during interphase:   a base pair could be mismatched during the duplication process causing a mutation.   correct answer: c
