If the large portion of polar ice detached and melted into the ocean due to increasing global temperatures, the two spheres that would interact would be the cryosphere and hydrosphere. All of the choices would interact but the most closely related to melting would be the hydrosphere and it would affect ocean current circulation patterns and sea level.

What would be evidence for increased temperature affecting plant species in a mountainous region?
earnstyle [38]

If the temperatures are increasing in a mountainous region, in order to be sure in that, the evidence can simply be obtained by the vegetation. The mountains tend to be warmer at the lower parts, and as the elevation increases, the temperature decreases. If it is a higher mountain, then we will see that there is certain type of vegetation in the lower parts, above it a belt of another vegetation type, above that one there's usually a belt of grasses, and the highest parts are usually with little to no vegetation. If the temperature increases though, then the vegetation from the bottom will start moving upwards, occupying larger portion, the second layer will move upwards as well, and the grasses will come around the top part of the mountain, with the barren part disappearing from the scene.

Which of the following statements about uniformitarianism is correct?
solong [7]

Answer:

a. geological processes occurring today have always occurred in the past

Explanation:

The theory of uniformitarianism is a theory that suggests that the changes in the crust of the Earth have been the result of geological activities that have been continuous and uniform processes. This theory doesn't really have big following in the present, though it has been much more popular in the past. The reason for that is that there have been numerous evidence that the changes in Earth's crust have not been created constantly by the same processes throughout the whole geological past. The supporters of this theory still stay strong on their beliefs though despite the evidence, and they offer other ''evidence'' that support their opinion.

How do temperatures in the traffic the far from temperatures in tempered zones
labwork [276]

<h3>In geography, the temperate climates (sometimes tepid climates) of Earth occur in the middle latitudes (23.5° to 66.5° N/S of Equator), which span between the tropics and the polar regions of Earth.[1] These zones generally have wider temperature ranges throughout the year and more distinct seasonal changes compared to tropical climates, where such variations are often small and usually only have precipitation changes.</h3>
