The correct answer is - greenhouse gases.

The humans have been having a very big impact on the composition of the atmosphere in the past century, and that has started to result into changes in the climate patters all over the globe.

The main problem appears with the huge amounts of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere, mostly carbon dioxide, but also methane. These two gases have properties that enable the greenhouse effect, which means that they are able to trap bigger amount of heat in the Earth's atmosphere, thus making it warmer.

If the ongoing trend continuous with the release of the greenhouse gases there will for sure be devastating effects on everyone and everything on the planet not so far in the future.

On which projection does Africa appear much bigger than the other landmasses?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Africa appears much bigger than the other landmasses on the Peters map projection.

Explanation:

There are numerous projection maps. All of them have some advantages and some disadvantages. One of those map projections in the Peters map projection or Gal-Peters map projection. This map projection's biggest problem is that it stretches certain parts of the world, some horizontally, some vertically.

On this map projection, Africa looks much bigger than it is, and it is comparable with the size of Asia even though Asia is much bigger in reality. The reason for this is that on the Peters map projection a vertical stretching occurrs around the Equator, and since the Equator passes around the middle of Africa the effect is the biggest at this landmass.

What is the island in the atlantic off the northwestern coast of mainland europe?
RUDIKE [14]
<h2>Answer: British Isles </h2>

The British Isles are an archipelago (Great Britain and Ireland, and other smaller islands) located at the northwest of the coast of Europe. They are separated from the European continent by the North Sea to the east and by the English Channel to the south, while to the west and north they border the Atlantic Ocean.

However this was not always in this way. Millions of years ago this portion of land was a peninsula linked by a limestone mountainous ridge to mainland Europe. This is how, where the current Dover Strait is located, there was a rock formation that joint Great Britain and France.

It is estimated that it was at the end of the last Ice Age (this whole area was frozen and the sea level was far much lower than today) that this territory began to separate from the continent, a process that ended in the Mesolithic period, in the middle of the Stone Age, becoming the insular territory we know today.

In fact, the current Irish Sea and the North Sea were dry land that was submerged with the rise of sea level in the thaw.

31. B. F. Skinner's work elaborated what E. L. Thorndike had called: A) shaping. B) conditioned reinforcement. C) the law of eff
sveta [45]

Answer:

31. C. Law of Effect

32. D. Innate satisfying stimuli

33. A. Modeling

Explanation:

BF Skinner elaborated the Law of Effect of Throndike by introducing reinforcement. Skinner proposed that behavior that is reinforced is more likely to be repeated and without reinforcement, it would eventually die out.

Primary reinforcers are unconditioned, meaning they are biologically important and learning is not necessary. Examples would be eating, sleeping, sex and the like.

The idea of modelling was introduced by Bandura. As children are surrounded by different individuals, exposed to TV characters and the like, they often observe and imitate the behavior of these "models". At first children are more likely to imitate those who are like them, and then evenutally associate the behavior to rewards and consequences. If the behavior they imitated lead to rewards, they would most likely continue the imitated behavior.
