(A) Carbon sequestration

  • Carbon dioxide is the most commonly produced greenhouse gas.
  • Carbon sequestration is the process of capturing and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide.
  • This is one way to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to reduce global climate change.

Explanation for incorrect :

(B) Carbon dating:Radiocarbon dating is a method for objectively estimating the age of carbonaceous material extracted from living organisms.

(c) Carbon fixing:Carbon fixation is the process by which plants fix atmospheric carbon to form organic compounds.”

All autotrophs, bacteria, algae and plants fix atmospheric carbon dioxide through the processes of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.

(D) Photosynthesis:Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.
