Geography

The Earth is not getting hotter because it is getting to the center of the universe.

There's two main reasons as to why the Earth is getting hotter:

1. Natural cycle

We are in a period when the Earth is in between glaciation, with one of them being behind us, and the other one being in the future. In the period in between, the Earth has the tendency to become warmer and warmer because of the change of the composition of the atmosphere, as well as the ocean currents.

2. Human activity

The people have been contributing for the increase in the warming process in the past century, and that has been done with the large release of CO2 and methane in the atmosphere. These two gases are gases that trap more heat in the atmosphere, thus resulting in an increase of the Greenhouse effect.

The correct answer is C. Currents

Explanation

The image in the question is a map showing the North Atlantic and the Caribbean Sea. In the middle of these is a red arrow that marks the Gulf Stream. An ocean current is a massive movement of ocean and sea waters. In the case of the Gulf of Mexico current, this is originated from the movement of warm waters from the Caribbean, which are heated by the latitudinal location because it receives the sun's rays more directly. It moves in a current towards the north of the Atlantic where it is losing temperature due to the difference in the incidence of the solar rays. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Currents.

2. What effect did the geography of ancient Greece<br> have on its early development?
Alik [6]

Answer:

The geography of ancient Greece determined and restricted its development to only certain areas, such as sea trade.

Explanation:

Ancient Greece, or rather the Hellenic city-states, are considered as one of the most developed civilizations of their time, though there can be made a solid case against it. Anyhow, in the early stages of the development of these city-states, they were very restricted in their development because of geographic factors.

The climate was of the Mediterranean type, which is a good climate, but problem was that the topography was rugged and mountainous, so agriculture was very limited to only a handful of crops and herding. Because all of the city-states had access to the sea, they focused on developing trade through it, with goods such as grapes, wine, olives, olives, and olive oil the most traded. They needed good wood for building ships, and they didn't really have any of that type. This made them heavily dependent on the Macedonians who had an abundance of wood, and considering that there was open hate between the two, it was not an ideal situation.
