Cause of climate change.

The Greenhouse Effect causes the atmosphere to retain heat. When sunlight reaches Earth's surface, it can either be reflected back into space or absorbed by Earth. Once absorbed, the Earth releases some of the energy back into the atmosphere as heat also called infrared radiation.

The United States is a nation -state. How would you respond to this comment? One response should provide evidence to support the
IrinaVladis [17]

Support:

I agree with this comment. The United States is a nation, whether people like it or not. We have to work together against other nations in order to survive. The state that is saying this comment also agrees with it since it knows it has other states it has to work with. We can achieve goals easier and faster if we all communicate together as a nation.


Refute:

The United States is not a nation. We have wars and fight with each other. We are enemies and we must work alone as states. We must prepare for fight with other states in this country and we must prepare to win. If we work together as a nation, we could all win and that would not be the goal. We want to be the top and not let others rise with us.



Hope this helps! I wrote this on my own, so it is based on my opinion. It still answers the question though! Thanks for posting! :)

Describe in detail what causes seafloor spreading. Use as many key terms as possible.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading results from intense activity in the upper mantle which cracks the crust and pushes it away.

Explanation:

Seafloor spreading is a process that was first noticed by Alfred Wegener and was used by him in his theory of plate tectonics. There are three types of plate boundaries; convergent boundary, transform boundary, and divergent boundary. The last one is the one where seafloor spreading occurs.

The convection currents in the mantle are the process that breaks up the crust and move the tectonic plates, and when there is higher activity than usual at some place it results in break up the crust of an already existing tectonic plate.  Basically, magma rises at a higher rate and pushes through the crust, in this case, the oceanic crust, and it manages to gradually break through it and come out on the seafloor. By doing so, the magma and the pressure from below are pushing the two now divided parts of the plate. As the space between the two different parts becomes larger and large the density of the crust becomes smaller and smaller so more and more magma rises through. The magma quickly solidifies on the ocean floor and piles up, thus creating an underwater mountain range known as a mid-ocean ridge.

What happened to the North American rain forest in the early 1900s
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

According to one estimate, stands of century-old forest now account for only 7% of forest cover in the United States (USDA-FS 2000). Since 1600, 90% of the virgin forests that once covered much of the lower 48 states have been cleared away.

Explanation:

Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, Washington

The Mount Baker-Snoqualmie forest is located in the Cascade mountain range in Washington state and is home to 644,000 acres of old-growth. Situated around an hour away from the Seattle metropolitan area, this forest is one of the most frequently visited in the country.
