Explanation:
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
Explanation:
Winds are caused by low and high pressure zones, mainly due to temperature differences of atmospheric air in different regions. Air moves from high to low-pressure zones causing winds.
Local winds, as the name suggests, are winds due to regional temperature differences. An example is sea breeze caused by temperature differences over land and sea in the region.
Global winds, on the other hand, are caused by large pressure systems across the planet. These are mainly caused by differences in how the sunlight ‘hits’ the planet at different latitudes – due to earth’s spherical nature- causing differential heating of the earth. These winds travel great distances causing trade winds.
Bacteria can divide every minute, so given 600 minutes in ten hours it would be an extremely large number
Answer:
Estimates of historical world population
Year 1400 1600
population (in billions) 0.35–0.40 0.50–0.58
growth p.a. >0% 0.15–0.3%
Explanation:
With continual improvements made to microscopes over time, magnification technology advanced enough to discover cells in the 17th century. This discovery is largely attributed to Robert Hooke, and began the scientific study of cells, known as cell biology.
