Answer:

A. The movement of the Earth along its orbit  

Explanation:

The moon orbits the Earth once every 27.3 days. This is the sidereal month. It is measured against the background stars.

However, the Earth is also orbiting the Sun, and the moon needs extra time to catch up to its previous position relative to the Sun. This is the synodic month. It takes 29.5 days.

B is wrong. The rotational speed of the Earth constant. It makes one revolution every 23 h 56 min 4.09053 s.

C is wrong. The synchronous rotation of the moon does not affect its orbital speed.

D is wrong. The tilt of the Earth's axis affects only the moon's angle in the sky.

Culture has the ability to shape three types of interactions for members of the group. Using four or more complete sentences, ex
charle [14.2K]

Answer: Culture has the ability to shape three types of interactions for members of a group: interactions between group members, outside of members, and with the environment. When it comes to interactions between each other, people in a culture are taught at a young age what is acceptable and what is not acceptable. For example, kids observe and practice how close to stand to somebody else. They learn appropriate greetings when they start conversations. They are also given direct instruction on how to interact at school and with adults within the society. Cultural differences or similarities with other groups can dictate interactions with outside groups. When different cultural groups find similarities, they often have positive interactions with one another. If they do not have much in common, each group must take some time to learn about the other group, and they must learn how to interact and compromise with each other. Culture can also have a large impact on how people interact with their environment. This can include how to build structures to adapt to climate differences, how traditions are practiced, and what clothing styles are worn.

Advantage and Disadvantage of<br>Conventional and non-conventional source<br>of energy​
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Conventional sources of energy is also called non-renewable sources of energy while non conventional sources of energy is called renewable sources of energy.

An example of conventional energy is coal, crude oil and natural gas. The advantage is the availability and affordability. The disadvantage is the level of air pollutants such as CO2 and CO it releases to the atmosphere which is harmful as it poses a risk of air borne illnesses.

An example of non conventional energy is the sun, wind , water etc. The advantage is that it reduces the risk of air pollution and keeps the environment clean as no toxic substances are being released into the atmosphere when used. The disadvantage is they are expensive and aren’t available all year round.

What are the cycles that have historically controlled natural climate variability? List the name of each cycle, its natural time
Verdich [7]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • Climate oscillation or climate cycles are a recurring oscillation within the global or regional climates and their fluctuations produce varying climatic cells and pressures often occurring on an interannual and multi annular basis.  
  • On a decadal and millennium timescales.Current examples of the ENSO, Pacific oscillation, Antarctica, and arctic oscillation. like ENSO is characterized by flooding and drought conditions and the distribution of extreme conditions in the form of heat and cold waves.
  • Other cycles like the Piora oscillation, Little ice age, medieval warm period, retreating of glaciers and warming of the planet. All these cycles move on earth from the equator to tropics to temperate to polar areas and the continuous warming and cooling periods have altered the rate of spreading of the seafloor and oceanic basin.
  • Present warming has drastically created a major change in the evolution of species causing extinction and quick decomposition of resources. The release of carbon and methane gases over these years have raised the greenhouse effect at alarming rates.
