What will most likely happen when a warmer air mass exists above a polar ice sheet?

I believe it is "The temperature of the ice sheet will be lowered" because it will most likely lower just a bit due to the heat. It's not going to fully melt but it will lower just a bit.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When warm air will rise above a polar ice sheet then it means due to high kinetic energy between the warm air molecules they will collide rapidly and frequently from one place to another.

As a result, warm air molecules will expand at a faster rate. As polar ice sheet is colder in nature therefore, it will absorb the heat from warm air.

Hence, the polar ice sheet will start to melt as absorption of heat will generate kinetic energy between the molecules of polar ice sheet.

Thus, we can conclude that heat will be transferred from the air mass to the ice.

Talja [164]

i would try to figure out how to get off of my bed without getting hurt, then look for food which since i'm microscopic i can eat living organisms .Then try to figure out how to get places without getting stepped on . i would be very careful because diseases are microscopic and once i tough them i would die .but i would try to get outside and see what it looks like without getten eaten by another microscopic thing.

Is that enough dm me on instagram if you need more @ h20boii

How do factors such as food, water, shelter, and space affect populations in an ecosystem?
statuscvo [17]
All of the factors listed above, except food can be classified as abiotic factors. Food (the presence of plants,animals and other organisms in the ecosystem and their complex relationships) is the biotic component of the ecosystem.
These factors affect the distribution, survival and  genetic characteristics of the populations. The lack of water, shelter and space can prevent certain species from living in the ecosystem or cause strong pressure of the natural selection and shape the genetic structure of the population.
Complex biotic relationship also influence behavior, presence and genetic structure of the populations.
