1. Greenhouse gases are compounds that are able to trap heat in the atmosphere, keeping the Earth's surface warmer than it would be if they were not present. The gases are the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect. Increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere enhances the greenhouse effect which is creating global warming and consequently the climate change. These gases are mainly carbon dioxide; metahne, nitrous oxide, and flourinated gases. 
 
2. Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere from animals and plants through the process of respiration and the burning of fossil fuels from industries. .
Animals and plants get rid of carbon dioxide gas through respiration. Carbon may also move from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. Burning of fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks makes carbon to enter the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.

What do you think can be learned from samples of sediment from the ocean floor?
AlexFokin [52]
Sea floor sediment provide an invaluable key to past climate change. Finely varved sediments from areas of rapid deposition provide a high-resolution record of past climate variation, and volcanic ash layers contribute to the comprehensive study of climate change on relatively short timescales. Oceanographers like to say that we know more about the dark side of the Moon than we do about the oceans. That statement is doubly true of the seafloor. Although modern technology has allowed us to learn more about the seafloor, vast regions remain unexplored. Scuba divers can only dive to about 40 meters and they cannot stay down there for very long. Although this is good for researching the organisms and ecosystems very near a coast, most oceanic research requires accessing greater depths.

Diffusing molecules move ________ until they are ________. Through channels of active transport proteins; evenly distributed up
koban [17]

Answer;

-Down the concentration gradients; evenly distributed

Diffusing molecules move down the concentration gradients until they are evenly distributed.

Explanation;

Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

-Whenever a substance exists in greater concentration on one side of a semipermeable membrane, such as cell membranes, any substance that can move down its concentration gradient across the membrane will do so. If the substances can move across the cell membrane without the cell expending energy, the movement of molecules is called passive transport.

-The mechanism of molecules moving across a cell membrane from the side where they are more concentrated to the side where they are less concentrated is a form of passive transport called simple diffusion.
