Answer:

B. variations in the shape of the Earth's orbit

Explanation:

Ice age cycles according to Milutin Milanković who was a Serbian geophysicist and climatologist can be defined as the glacial and interglacial cycles or periods which occurs due to the unsteady movement of the Earth in its orbit. This unsteady movement resulted in a change in way solar energy was been distributed on the surface of the Earth.

The ice age cycles are referred

to as Milutin Milanković cycles. The ice age cycles according to Milutin Milanković has two cycles, the shorter cycle is for an average of 100,000 years while the longer cycle is for an average of 413,000 years.

These ice age cycles are important because they have an effect on the Earth's climate. Such effects include

a. The way ice is been formed on the earth.

b. The distribution of solar energy from the sun or the amount of sunlight exposure to the regions on the earth.

One of the factors contributing to the ice age cycles is the variations in the

shape of the Earth's orbit.

What is the use of gases water vapour and dust particle in our daily llive
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Explanation:

Water vapour is important for a number of different reasons, but its presence in the atmosphere is one of the most important. Water vapour is present within the atmosphere in varying amounts but is a vital component of the hydrologic cycle. In the atmosphere, water vapour can exist in trace amounts or even make up as much as 4% of the atmosphere. This concentration depends largely on where the water vapour levels are measured. On average, the value of water vapour in the atmosphere is 2-3%. In arid or very cold locations - such as polar regions - the amount of water vapour in the air is much lower.[4]

Even on a clear day, water vapour exists in the atmosphere as an invisible gas - unlike clouds which are droplets of liquid water that can be seen. If the conditions are right, water vapour in the air can collect on small particles of dust, salt, or smoke in the air to form small droplets. These droplets gradually increase in size and over time become various forms of precipitation. Since water vapour is so prominent in the atmosphere and forms precipitation, water vapour is a major component of the hydrologic cycle. When water holding areas are heated by the Sun, some of the water being held evaporates and becomes vapour, powering the cycle.[5]

In addition to being created by evaporating water, plants are capable of producing water vapour through a process of transpiration.

Answer:

There is a higher concentration of people who live in the northern hemisphere than the southern hemisphere.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the equatorial region is not densely populated, but it is actually sparsely populated.

B is not correct because the southern hemisphere doesn't have a higher concetration of people than the northern hemisphere.

C is not correct because if that was the case the population density would have been the highest either on the Equator or the poles, and that is not the case at all.

D is not correct because the population density is related to the concept of agricultural production.

E is correct because the northern hemisphere has a higher concentration of population than the southern hemisphere, and this is largely due to the fact that there is much more land on the northern hemisphere, thus a much larger area where there are suitable conditions for living.
