Questions and Answers

How does winter impact carbon cycling in lakes and ponds?

  • Low sunlight leads to less photosynthesis and lower oxygen (correct)
  • Cold temperatures increase the amount of nitrogen for photosynthesis
  • There is less carbon dioxide produced in winter
  • Snow increases the amount of water and the plants' ability to photosynthesize
  • Which statement best compares how aerobic and anaerobic respiration impact atmospheric carbon dioxide levels?

  • Anaerobic respiration significantly contributes to atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, while aerobic respiration has a minimal impact.
  • Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration have a negligible impact on atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.
  • Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration significantly increase atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, with anaerobic respiration contributing slightly more.
  • Aerobic respiration significantly contributes to atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, while anaerobic respiration has a minimal impact. (correct)
