Compare the natural greenhouse effect with the human-induced process
Yuliya22 [10]
Well, the greenhouse effect is a natural process by which some of the radiant heat from the Sun is captured in the lower atmosphere of the Earth, thus maintaining the temperature of the Earth's surface. The gases that help capture the heat, called “greenhouse gases,” include water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and a variety of manufactured chemicals. Some are emitted from natural sources; others are anthropogenic, resulting from human activities. Over the past several decades, rising concentrations of greenhouse gases have been detected in the Earth's atmosphere. Although there is not universal agreement within the scientific community on the impacts of increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases, it has been theorized that they may lead to an increase in the average temperature of the Earth's surface. To date, it has been difficult to note such an increase conclusively because of the differences in temperature around the Earth and throughout the year, and because of the difficulty of distinguishing permanent temperature changes from the normal fluctuations of the Earth's climate. In addition, there is not universal agreement among scientists and climatologists on the potential impacts of an increase in the average temperature of the Earth, although it has been hypothesized that it could lead to a variety of changes in the global climate, sea level, agricultural patterns, and ecosystems that could be, on net, detrimental.

What is the defining characteristic of a water cycle?
4vir4ik [10]

D. It has the same starting and ending point.

Explanation:

The defining characteristic of a water cycle is that it has the same starting and ending point. The water cycle is also known as the hydrologic cycle. It shows the cyclic path through which water moves in nature.

  • The water cycle is a part of the biogeochemical cycle.
  • The biogeochemical cycle shows how certain elements and compounds moves between living organisms and the earth.
  • All living organisms are essentially dependent of water and it is exchanged with the environment around.
  • Some key components of the water cycle are precipitation, ocean, living organisms, ground water, infiltration, surface run off, evaporation etc.
