Answer:

Human activity - Produces greenhouse gasses.

Greenhouse gasses - Cause atmosphere to trap more heat.

Sun's output - Can vary.

Ice age - Peaked 20,000 years ago.

Explanation:

Human activity includes the usage of fossil fuels on a very large scale, and by using them we release huge amounts of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.

The greenhouse gasses have the ability to trap the heat that is reflected from the surface of the planet, thus keeping more of it in the atmosphere and causing global temperature rise.

The sun is technically a star, thus an object that produces energy and light, and like every star, it has variations in its activity in accordance with the processes going on on it.

There have been numerous ice ages through the geological past, and the last one of them ended only around 10,000 years ago, with its peak being just 20,000 years ago.

Natalka [10]

It's pretty easy if they were raised in the area I believe. You can enjoy nature, hang out with friends and family, and much more. It isn't really isolating if you're used to it, so I wouldn't really know. Hope this answers your answer though.

Answer:

It absorbs less heat per molecule than the greenhouse gases methane or nitrous oxide, but it's more abundant and it stays in the atmosphere much longer.

How did humanist scholarship encourage oceanic exploration? what motivated the portuguese, particularly prince henry the navigat
jekas [21]

The humanist scholarship encouraged oceanic exploration as due to the large-scale printing of books, people started gaining knowledge and setting out on oceanic expeditions in order to find new trade routes and satisfy their spirit of adventure.

The factors which motivated the Portuguese, particularly Prince Henry the Navigator, to explore west Africa were to extract and export gold and other valuables from which Portugal could benefit. The other reason was that Prince Henry was fascinated about west Africa as the Portuguese had little knowledge about it.

With the development of the printing press, books were available more easily and were even cheaper. This help in the widespread of new ideas and thoughts in society. People built sturdier ships with this knowledge and set out to explore new oceanic routes to procure spices and other goods at cheaper prices from different parts of the world.
