Sore throat is a symptom, not a disease. In each case, there was a different cause that dictated a different treatment. The scratchy throat probably was a mechanical problem caused by dry, heated winter air and aggravated by my friend's tendency to breathe through her mouth when she sleeps.
Definition. Carbon-storing natural feature (such as a forest or the land mass) that exchanges carbon with other reservoirs. A reservoir from which no outflow of carbon compounds takes place is called carbon sink.
1 The rest of the carbon is stored as CO 2 (carbon dioxide) in the atmosphere (2%), as biomass in land plants and soils (5%), as fossil fuels in a variety of geologic reservoirs (8%) and as a collection of ions in the ocean (85%). 2  These are the âactiveâ reservoirs of carbon of interest in this website.
