Answer:

c. Ice age

Explanation:

An ice age is a long period in the history of the earth that causes a reduction in the global temperatures of the surface of the earth that results in the expansion of landmasses and polar ice sheets and valley glaciers. It marks the longest climatic change response from the earth.

Usually associated with the greenhouse periods. As the current earth is in a quaternary period where there are no glaciers on the planet that were prevalent for 50,000 years due to the glacial cycles of glacial and the interglacial periods.

Thus these glacial period marks the rotational motion of the plates and the upliftment of the landmasses.

<span>Ice age following is an example of a long-term climatic change. Because ice age happens every 300-400 million years when the earth tries to revive back its natural state form. Blizzard happens during a snowstorm and also lasts in days to months. Summer and winter are types of seasons occurring for a few months.</span>

After some research and studying the graph you posted with your question, there are many reasons why all four latitudes have the same number of hours of daylight on March 20th and also September 22nd.

Some of the reasons are:

These two dates are equinoxes, the sun's direct rays are over the equator, and the Earth's North Pole is not is not tilted toward or away from the Sun on those specific dates. Any of these answers are acceptable for the question you asked.

Which of the following best explains why many jovian moons have been more geologically active than the Moon or Mercury?

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: The answer is A. Jovian moons are made mostly of ice that can melt and deform at lower temperatures than the rock and metal that make up the Moon and Mercury

Explanation: Jovian moons are moons of Jupiter. There are about 79 known moons in Jupiter. They are mostly made up of ice.

The main component of geological activity (change in surface features and landscapes of a planet) is heat. The ice that makes up Jovian moon can easily melt or deform compared to rock and metal that made up both Moon and Mercury. This as a result explains why there is more geological activities in Jovian moons compared to Moon and Mercury.
