How does the destruction of forests contribute to levels of atmospheric carbon?
A
Levels of atmospheric carbon are unaffected by destruction of forests, because the carbon entering the carbon cycle from the dead trees balances out the loss of carbon absorption during photosynthesis.
B
When trees are destroyed, their stored carbon reenters the carbon cycle decreasing levels of atmospheric carbon.
C
Fewer trees leads to greater amounts of carbon dioxide being absorbed from the atmosphere.
D
Fewer trees leads to smaller amounts of carbon dioxide being absorbed from the atmosphere.
