Flagellates are microbes that have a rod-shaped flagellum that with their locomotion. certain flagellates reside inside termites. these flagellates provide enzymes for the termites to digest cellulose, which them survive. in turn, the termites provide nourishment to these flagellates. termites need cellulose for their survival, and flagellates obtain nutrition only from termites. which statement can be true about the association between these microbes and termites? the flagellates share a facultative mutualistic association with the termites. the flagellates and termites share an obligate mutualistic association. the flagellates share an obligate parasitic association with the termites. the flagellates and termites share a commensal association. the flagellates and termites share a facultative parasitic association.

"-the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back to the environment

-carbon is the essential component of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (which make up all organisms)

-carbon exists in air, water, and living organisms

-producers convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere into carbohydrates during photosynthesis

-bacteria in the atmosphere cycles through the system in filtration units

-in cellular respiration, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide

-some carbon is stored in limestone (forming one of the largest "carbon sinks" on earth)

-largest carbon reservoir on earth= limestone

-carbon stored in the bodies of organisms as fat, oils, or other molecules may be released into the soil or air when the organism dies

-this may form deposits of coal, oil, or natural gas (fossil fuels, which increased the atmospheric carbon dioxide)

-fossil fuels store carbon left over from bodies of organisms that died millions of years ago

-they are located in the surface of earth, deep within the earth and beneath the ocean floor."
