"what are some of the consequences of global warming"

Geography
2 answers:
kirill [66]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Global warming is an effect on our planet that is caused by carbon dioxide being trapped in our atmosphere. When the carbon dioxide is trapped, it is bouncing off the bottom layer of the clouds. Some escapes into outer space, but most of it stays. We cause global warming, by using vehicles, making asphalt, burning fossil fuels, and many more.

An effect of global warming is our poles oceans are melting. When our polar caps melt most of the way, we will experience a lot of flooding for many coastal cities. We will also experience extreme weather, like stronger hurricanes, larger thunderstorms, and larger areas effected by other natural disasters.

One thing we can do to stop or slow down these effects is to use vehicles less (or make better vehicles for the environment), stop burning fossil fuels, and make a world-wide law to prevent certain things from commencing. Nuclear bombs are also a problem to global warming. We will hopefully never reach that problem.

Question 13(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points) Which of the following does not accompany volcanic activity in the Pacific Northwest
svetoff [14.1K]

Ocean ridge does not accompany volcanic activity in the Pacific Northwest.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this process the denser oceanic plate force the thinner continental plate to sink into the mantle. This region is referred as subduction zone, where it results in intense volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.

The denser Pacific plate sinks because of the chunk pull impact and it likewise prompts the development of mountains. This sort of impact creates profound center seismic tremors.

It isn't related with the maritime edge as the mid-maritime edge shapes in a disparate plate limit.  In the Pacific Northwest , the volcanic activity  is carried out by the geological process majorly by subduction.

Which of the following is NOT part of the definition of a mineral? Select one: a. Has a specific chemical composition O b. Has a
Kay [80]

Answer:

The following is NOT part of the definition of a mineral: c. can be produced by natural or laboratory processes. Is glacial ice a mineral? d. Yes. Which type of bonds results when two atoms share electrons? d. Covalent

Explanation:

Mineral are composed of specific chemical elements. The are organized and their atomic structure forms crystals. They occur naturally and they are associated with rocks. The reason why they are inorganic is because they do not contain carbon, however, they can be produced by organic processes. Therefore, c. is NOT part of the definition of a mineral.  Following the same principles, ice is considered a mineral because it is composed of one single chemical molecule (H2O), it occurs naturally and it contains a well organized crystal structure. The process of sharing two atoms is called covalent bond. In an ionic system, the electron is transferred to another atom so the concept of sharing is limited to the covalent bond.
