Rosa drew a flow chart of the carbon cycle. Flow chart of the carbon cycle with 4 boxes connected by arrows. Box 1: carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Box 2: X. Box 3: consumers eat producers. Box 4: Y. The arrow that follows box 4 connects to box 1.
Which labels best complete the flow chart?
A
X: Producers undergo photosynthesis.
Y: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste.
B
X: Decomposers return carbon to the soil and release waste.
Y: Producers undergo photosynthesis.
C
X: Decomposers take in carbon dioxide.
Y: Producers absorb carbon through their roots.
D
X: Producers absorb carbon through their roots.
Y: Decomposers take in carbon dioxide.

The correct Answer is A.

The Flow chart of the Carbon Cycle, will look as follows:

1. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

2. Producers undergo photosynthesis (in this process plants among other producers like algae, use CO2 to produce energy).

3. Consumers eat producers (a primary level of consumer like a rabbit eats the producers or plants).

4. Decomposers return Carbon to the soil and release waste.

And the  cycle continues again, by going back to step 1.

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
