True, the given statement that Carbon in the ocean originates from the atmosphere is absolutely correct. Carbondi oxide in the atmosphere is absobed by the ocean surface and is dissolved as inorganic carbon in the oceans.

Osmosis is the process in which water molecules move from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower potential down a water potential gradient across a partially permeable membrane. It doen't requires any additional energy to do this work. 

So, Osmosis is a Passive.

Active and passive transport processes are two ways molecules and other materials move in and out of cells and cross intracellular membranes.

1. Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient (from an area of lower to higher concentration), which does not ordinarily occur, so enzymes and energy are required.

2. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration. Passive transport occurs because of the entropy of the system, so additional energy isn't required for it to occur.

3. Active transport requires energy to proceed, while passive transport does not require the input of extra energy to occur.

Ominous is the correctly spelt word in the given options. It means that giving the worrying impression that something bad is going to happen.

The statement "A communist government is led by one political party" is what best defiines a communist government. Here in this type of government, the power is in the hands of the one political party and it only controls the political and economic systems of the country/state.

P= I^2.R where, I= Current, P= Electric Power, R=Resistance. Here all the resistance is put in parallel combination and in parallel combination the value of Resistance decreases and dissipation of power increase, hence 3 times more power will be dissipated(3P).

Finance minister Arun Jaitley was on 13 March 2017 given the additional charge of the defence ministry after Manohar Parrikar resigned+ to take on the new role of Goa chief minister.

Home Minister Rajnath Singh launched the web-based application e-FRRO (e-Foreigners Regional Registration Office) scheme under which foreigners can avail, various visa and immigration-related services online. This will facilitate hassle-free travel to India for foreigners.
