Most of the galaxies in the Universe are moving away from us and as a result, the light that they emit is shifted to the red end of the spectrum due to an increase in wavelength as the Universe expands. When a galaxy moves towards us, for example in the case of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), the wavelength of the light emitted is shortened thanks to the Doppler Effect (the same effect that causes the siren of an ambulance to rise and fall in pitch as it drives by), shifting the light to the blue end of the spectrum. The galaxy is then said to be blue-shifted.

Which group of air pollutants tend to cool the atmosphere because they reflect more sunlight back to space thus reducing incomin
kondaur [170]

Answer:

D. atmospheric aerosols.

Explanation:

<em>Atmospheric aerosols are tiny particles that float in the air. These particles could be liquid or solid and are usually suspended primarily by direct emission into the atmosphere or secondarily by condensation process. </em>

Atmospheric aerosols have numerous effects on the biotic and abiotic factors of the environment. They alter air quality and impact human health in some cases, they can reduce atmospheric visibility, and they also reduce the amount of radiation that reaches the earth by scattering or reflecting some of the radiations from the sun back into space, leading to cooling of the atmosphere.
