<span>The correct answer to this question is the following:
The crust’s role in biogeochemical cycles allows it to provide the raw materials necessary for life on earth. The crust actually affects earth in a massive variety of ways, that are impossible for us to understand without the research undertaken by scientists to understand more about its' effects on life.</span>
Answer:
d. Melting ice and expansion of heated water.
Explanation:
As the planet gets warmer, sea level rises.
The two major causes are melting of ice and expansion of seawater.
It is estimated that rising sea levels are caused
- One-third by melting of ice in Greenland and Antarctica
- One-third by melting of ice in mountains
- One-third by thermal expansion of the warmer water
a. is wrong. Increased precipitation comes largely from the oceans by the water cycle.
b. is wrong. Melting ice is responsible for only two-thirds of sea-level rise.
c. is wrong. Increased carbon dioxide levels increase the acidity of the water but have little effect on the volume.

Answer: Magnolia is a large genus of about 210 flowering plant species in the subfamily Magnolioideae of the family Magnoliaceae. It is named after French botanist Pierre Magnol. Magnolia is an ancient genus. Appearing before bees did, the flowers are theorized to have evolved to encourage pollination by beetles. To avoid damage from pollinating beetles, the carpels of Magnolia flowers are extremely tough. Fossilized specimens of M. acuminata have been found dating to 20 million years ago, and of plants identifiably belonging to the Magnoliaceae date to 95 million years ago. Another aspect of Magnolia considered to represent an ancestral state is that the flower bud is enclosed in a bract rather than in sepals; the perianth parts are undifferentiated and called tepals rather than distinct sepals and petals. Magnolia shares the tepal characteristic with several other flowering plants near the base of the flowering plant lineage such as Amborella and Nymphaea.
