Best Answer

The carbon cycle is the natural movement of carbon throughout the biosphere. There is no positive way that human activity affects it.

Negative effects of human activity on the carbon cycle:

Deforestation and combustion of fossil fuels are overloading the carbon cycle. By cutting down the forests we no longer have trees to remove the carbon from the atmosphere. By burning coal, oil and natural gas we are releasing age-old carbon from millions of years ago into the atmosphere.

What is structure of alkyl isocyanide?

R (triple bond) N (single bond) C R is an alkyl group. Nitrogen is positively charged. Carbon is negatively charged.


Does SN2 reaction occur through free radical mechanism?

No, it is ionic in nature because a nucleophile (negatively charged) attacks on electrophilic (partially positively charged) carbon atom

Are valence electrons positive or negative?

carbon is a negatively and positively charged ion since it can gain or lose 4


Why is ketones and aldehydes are called as polar compounds?

aldehydes n ketones contain a carbonyl group in which carbon is attached to an oxygen with a double bond. The carbon is less electronegative than oxygen therefore carbon acts as an electrophile and oxygen acts an a nucleophile. That is carbon is partially positively charged n oxygen is partially negatively charged. Hence aldehydes n ketones are polar compounds


What category of elements on the periofic table tends to create negatively charged ions?

The oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorine groups love to steal electrons from other elements, making them negatively charged ions, whereas most metals up to the carbon group like to give away electrons, making them positively charged ions. I hope that's what you were asking.


At what point does human activity affect the natural cabon cycle?

Human Activities affect the carbon cycle at a huge rate. Release of toxins and other waste might alter the cycle.


Why the valence of carbon is always positive?

valency of carbon is positive as it gives it electron so it is positively charge


Outermost energy level of carbon-13?

All neutral carbon atoms have 6 protons and 6 electrons, regardless of isotope. From the periodic table, the atomic number of carbon is 6, and atomic number is the number of protons in the nuclei of a given element's atoms. In a neutral atom, the number of positively charged protons is equal to the number of negatively charged electrons.


What is an atom with 3 neutrons 3 protons 3 electrons and a nucleus called?

This may seem confusing but this question is impossible to answer. The nucleus of the atom is made of positively charges protons and neutrons with no charge held together by what is known as the strong force. Electrons are negatively charged and circle the nucleus at nearly the speed of light. There is no atom with three protons and three neutrons.
