A non-example of an atom is a carbon atom.
Trees absorb carbon dioxide (when talking about a "carbon sink", it means the carbon as any form).
An example is sulfur.
Calcium, hydrogen and carbon are all non-metals
If non-metal are solid, then they can be broken. for example, coal is a non-metal (form of carbon) and can be broken.
A non-example of a element is water, wood, carbon dioxide, plastic,and ice.'Non-examples' are also known as compounds.
Decaying vegetation is actually the opposite of a carbon sink. A carbon sink is something that takes carbon out its natural cycle and stores in for an extended period of time. Vegetation, particularly trees, absorb carbon, and thus they act as stores. However, decaying vegetation releases the carbon back into the air as it decays. Therefore, it is not a sink.
Trees absorb carbon dioxide (when talking about a "carbon sink", it means the carbon as any form).
The non metal that has the highest melting point is Carbon. The reason for this is because Carbon has such strong bonds. An example of this would be a diamond.
carbon source
heat sink is when heat is absorbed into any type of environment, including the aquatic ecosystem; and carbon sink is when CO2 is absorbed into any type of environment including the terrestrial ecosystem.
Carbon found within limestone rocks.
