How can the carbon in animal wastes reach the atmosphere? a) photosynthesis, organic carbon, underground storage. b) decomposition, fossil fuel formation, fossil fuel emissions. c) fossil fuel emissions, diffusion, ocean storage. d) transpiration, diffusion, ocean storage.

complete the square on the right side of the equation;

-5(x + 0)^2 + 15

answer: d. y = -x^2 + 15

for  example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems,  such  as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.
