The tundra is a biome on the Earth that covers approximately 20% of its land mass, and it is almost exclusively located in the Northern Hemisphere. It is an environment that helps in the regulation of the CO2 in the atmosphere, and it is one of the biggest natural CO2 sinks. The living organisms in the tundra, are using the CO2 for their needs, thus removing parts of it from the atmosphere, and when they die, because the tundra is cold, and the decomposition is very slow, most of the CO2 remains trapped, and doesn't go into the atmosphere.

Unfortunately, the global warming is slowly changing the tundra, and prolongs the summer periods, thus reducing the permafrost period of the year, so the decomposition of the living organisms is getting quicker, and also bigger percentage of the CO2 from them gets to the atmosphere.

Answer:

Plate Tectonic theory

Explanation:

Plate tectonics is based on continental drift,  and seafloor spreading the three pieces of evidence that support this are those given by Alfred Wagner

As the Jigsaw fit between continents that were one at some point in time.

As the polar wandering or the flight to poles i.e how continents are drifted way to poles by forces of wind.

Presence of the same flora and fauna and glacial valley formation that were once a part of the same continent of Pangea and Gondwana.

The hypothesis ultimately got replaced by seafloor spreading as the drawbacks of drift theory which would not give sufficient evidence for the spreading away of continents. Earth's tectonic forces and internal sources of energy i.e heat produced by radioactive decay was not emphasized and Alfred's continuous orogeny could not have been possible.
