Answer:
Hiya!!
Many factors, both natural and human, can cause changes in Earth's energy balance, including: Variations in the sun's energy reaching Earth. Changes in the reflectivity of Earth's atmosphere and surface. Changes in the greenhouse effect, which affects the amount of heat retained by Earth's atmosphere.
Answer:
i would say: weather happens everyday in our life and weather men talk about the weather so their is no need to be worried about weather predictions.
1) use different resources and therefore, they do not compete.
They have different needs and the island is able to provide for their needs.
They live in different type of shelter and eat different type of food. That is why competition between these two species is non-existent, thus, ensuring their survival.
Had these two different species need the same type of food and shelter, their number will diminish over time until only the fittest organism among the species will survive.
Answer:
Animals and humans depend on plants for many things, and without plants, there could be no life on Earth.
Explanation:
1. Plants are the primary producers. They are the only organisms that can make their own food. Animals, who are incapable of making their own food, depend on plants for their supply of food.
2.The oxygen that animals breathe comes from plants. Through photosynthesis, plants take energy from the sun, carbon dioxide from the air, and water and minerals from the soil. They then give off water and oxygen. Animals then use oxygen process called respiration. Respiration is the process used by organisms to release energy from food, and carbon dioxide is given off.
3.Plants also provide habitat for many species of animals. The plants provide food, shelter from weather (rain, sun), nesting place, sleeping ground and hideout from predators.
For example: Different animals live in different parts of the rainforest. Scientists divide the rainforest into zones based on the living environment.
Nestled at the edge of the arid Great Basin and the snowy Sierra Nevada mountains in California, Mono Lake is an ancient saline lake that covers over 70 square miles and supports a unique and productive ecosystem. The lake has no fish; instead it is home to trillions of brine shrimp and alkali flies. Freshwater streams feed Mono Lake, supporting lush riparian forests of cottonwood and willow along their banks. Along the lakeshore, scenic limestone formations known as tufa towers rise from the water's surface. Millions of migratory birds visit the lake each year.
From 1941 until 1990, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (DWP) diverted excessive amounts of water from Mono Basin streams. Mono Lake dropped 45 vertical feet, lost half its volume, and doubled in salinity.
The Mono Lake Committee, founded in 1978, led the fight to save the lake with cooperative solutions. We continue our protection, restoration, and education efforts today with the support of 16,000 members --and we host this Website.
In 1994, after over a decade of litigation, the California State Water Resources Control Board ordered DWP to allow Mono Lake to rise to a healthy level of 6,392 feet above sea level--twenty feet above its historic low. It is rising toward that goal -- click here for the current lake level, or visit one of the other links on this page for more of the Mono Lake story.
