Describe the origin and the impact the black plague had on Europe.
a_sh-v [17]
I say consequences of the Black Death included a series of religious, social, and economic upheavals, which had profound effects on the course ofEuropean history. The Black Death was one of the most devastatingpandemics in human history, peaking in Europe between 1347 and 1350 with 30% to 65% of the population killed. It reduced world population from an estimated 450 million to between 350 and 375 million. It took 80 and in some areas more than 150 years for Europe's population to recover.f<span>rom the perspective of many of the survivors, however, the impact was much more benign, for their labor was in higher demand. Hilton has argued that those English peasants who survived found their situation to be much improved. For English peasants the 15th century was a</span><span> </span><span>golden age of prosperity</span><span> </span><span>and new opportunities. Land was plentiful, wages high, and serfdom had all but disappeared. A century later, as</span><span> </span><span>population growth</span><span>resumed, the peasants again faced deprivation and famine. i hope this helps you</span>

3. The greenhouse effect is driven by the fact that greenhouse gases are:
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: The greenhouse effect is driven by the fact that greenhouse gases are:___, would be: Good absorbers of radiation at all wavelengths.

Explanation:

Under normal circumstances, the Earth receives energy from the sun and also produces a bit of its own energy. The energy that arrives from the sun is usually known as shortwave radiation, while the energy that is both absorbed by the Earth´s atmosphere, and the energy produced by Earth itself, becomes part of what is known as the longwave radiation. Greenhouse gases, like water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane trap both longwave and shortwave radiation, which should usually be expelled to a certain extent towards space, and maintain them trapped inside the atmosphere. This bouncing effect between the shield created by the gases and the lower atmosphere, should normally be controlled by the amount of atoms of gases in the higher atmosphere. However, in the greenhouse effect, what is happening is that the amount of gases is too high, and therefore they are trapping most of the radiation, both longwave and shortwave, and keeping it in, allowing the climate to warm up.
