HELP PLEASE!

cookiemonster:

this is the diagram: http://prntscr.com/gel41e Using the diagram above, match the description to the corresponding location in the carbon cycle model. Provide the letter only. Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar used for food. Carbon trapped in fossil fuels is converted to carbon dioxide. Organic carbon is converted to fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide is converted to carbonates. Sugar is broken down and converted to carbon dioxide. Location ________ Location ________ Location ________ Location ________ Location ________

@YoursTruly @PandaSurvive @Vocaloid @ThisGirlPretty

Vocaloid:

hint: humans make CO2 (carbon dioxide) from sugar, plants make sugar from CO2 so would "Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar used for food. " apply for a plant or an animal?

cookiemonster:

umm animal?

Vocaloid:

plants convert CO2 to sugar animals convert sugar to CO2 so would "Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar used for food. " apply for a plant or an animal?

cookiemonster:

oohhh plant!

Vocaloid:

good so the first line should be the arrow pointing from the tree (A)

cookiemonster:

first location (A)?

Vocaloid:

yes

cookiemonster:

ok please continue

Vocaloid:

"Carbon trapped in fossil fuels is converted to carbon dioxide. " factories burn fossil fuels and produce CO2 which arrow points from the factory to the sky

cookiemonster:

ummm what are the options?

Vocaloid:

look at the diagram. which arrow points from the factory to the sky?

cookiemonster:

c?

Vocaloid:

which letter is closest to the factory?

cookiemonster:

c

Vocaloid:

look carefully.

Vocaloid:

which letter is closest to the smoke?

cookiemonster:

umm the other would be g?

Vocaloid:

good, G is your answer for #2

cookiemonster:

ok :) next..

Vocaloid:

"Organic carbon is converted to fossil fuels. " organic carbon from dead things gets converted to fossil fuels in the ground which arrow points from the dead tree to the ground?

cookiemonster:

e?

Vocaloid:

good

cookiemonster:

:)

Vocaloid:

Carbon dioxide is converted to carbonates. ok tbh I'm not sure but I suppose it would be H (the one pointing to the water)

cookiemonster:

so then the last one is f :)

Vocaloid:

yeah F is good

cookiemonster:

i have one more part .. its like part 2 to this assignment

cookiemonster:

the diagram: http://prntscr.com/gem1fe Using the diagram above, answer the following questions: True or False. The arrow labeled C represents a transfer of chemical energy to mechanical energy. Explain why this is true or false. True or False. The arrow labeled A represents a transfer of solar energy to chemical energy. Explain why this is true or false. Which arrow or arrows represent a release of carbon dioxide? What process is occurring at the arrow(s) you selected? Which arrow or arrows indicate a process that cycles carbon from living or nonliving organisms? Describe the process or processes you selected. Which arrow or arrows represent reactions that demonstrate a conservation of mass and energy? Explain your answer.

cookiemonster:

@Vocaloid

Vocaloid:

hints: arrow C is pointing from a factory to the sky. it represents factories burning fossil fuels (chemical energy) and turning it into thermal energy (heat) is number one true or false?

cookiemonster:

true?

Vocaloid:

read number one again.

Vocaloid:

what the problem says: True or False. The arrow labeled C represents a transfer of chemical energy to mechanical energy. Explain why this is true or false. what I said: arrow C is pointing from a factory to the sky. it represents factories burning fossil fuels (chemical energy) and turning it into thermal energy (heat)

cookiemonster:

oh god, i read it wrong sorry... false

Vocaloid:

good

cookiemonster:

dont forget that for these you have to explain why its true or false :)

Vocaloid:

arrow A is pointing from the sun (thermal energy) to a plant (chemical energy) is number two true or false?

Vocaloid:

I literally just explained it.

cookiemonster:

i know im just saying :)

Vocaloid:

then why remind me if I already explained it?

Vocaloid:

anyway, number two:

Vocaloid:

arrow A is pointing from the sun (thermal energy) to a plant (chemical energy) is number two true or false?

cookiemonster:

true

Vocaloid:

good, let's move to three

cookiemonster:

okie!

Vocaloid:

Which arrow or arrows represent a release of carbon dioxide? What process is occurring at the arrow(s) you selected? hint: which two arrows are pointing directly to the sky?

cookiemonster:

hmm... c and f?

Vocaloid:

good arrow f = plant respiration arrow c = burning fossil fuels (combustion)

Vocaloid:

Which arrow or arrows indicate a process that cycles carbon from living or nonliving organisms? Describe the process or processes you selected. pick the two arrows that are pointing FROM living/dead organisms

cookiemonster:

hmm... that ones hard im not sure .. e and??

Vocaloid:

hint: plants are alive

cookiemonster:

f? or

Vocaloid:

good E = conversion of carbon from dead animals to fossil fuels (decomposition?) F = plant respiration

Vocaloid:

Which arrow or arrows represent reactions that demonstrate a conservation of mass and energy? Explain your answer. ok I don't know how many answers you are allowed to pick but I think all arrows technically work because energy/mass is always consersved

cookiemonster:

hm.... it doesnt say how many i can pick it says arrow or arrows so just go for it, put whatever you think is right :)

Vocaloid:

yeah I would just put all of them tbh

cookiemonster:

ok and can u explain why?

cookiemonster:

@Vocaloid

cookiemonster:

@Vocaloid YA THERE?

Vocaloid:

read what I wrote, please.

Vocaloid:

"ok I don't know how many answers you are allowed to pick but I think all arrows technically work because energy/mass is always consersved"

cookiemonster:

ok gotcha

cookiemonster:

thanks for ur help :)

cookiemonster:

also are you sure that its not E, because it is the only thing that is preserved

Vocaloid:

?

Vocaloid:

"Which arrow or arrows represent reactions that demonstrate a conservation of mass and energy? Explain your answer."

Vocaloid:

conserved, not preserved

cookiemonster:

oh sorry got confused.,, :) all are conserved?

Vocaloid:

yes

cookiemonster:

ok thanks ill tag you if i need more help :)
