Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The type of season and climate that earth experiences at different places are due to the earth's tilt and because of the earth's elliptical orbit. During its motion along the elliptical path, the earth moves from one place to another, as a result of which the distance from the sun increases and decreases at various location. This is one of the factors why one experiences a different type of seasons. The earth is tilted at an angle of 23.5°, and the northern hemisphere experiences summer when the earth's tilt is towards the sun, and the opposite side experiences winter.

When this tilt of the earth will change along with the change in its orbital path, then there will be simultaneous changes in the climate and seasons, which could lead to long term change in the earth's climate.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Answer:

A) its elliptical orbit and tilt on its axis  

Explanation:

Earth revolves around the sun in an elliptical path. Its axis is tilted to about 23.5° from the vertical.

These two factors determine the global climate on the Earth.

Due to elliptical orbit, the earth is sometimes closer to sun than the rest of the time. When it is closer the global temperature rises by 5 degrees. Due to the tilt of the Earth, seasons occur. The hemisphere which points towards the sun has summers where as which points away has winters.

Thus, the long-term climate change is effected by elliptical orbit and tilt of the axis.

torisob [31]

Answer:

C) Faults form in the lithosphere.

Explanation:

Faults form in lithosphere is part of transform boundaries because the plates simply slide past each other without causing any change to the lithosphere (i.e it is neither created nor destroyed) which is why transform boundaries are also sometimes referenced when we speak about phenomena related to when plates slide in opposite directions.

What is an advantage of using nuclear power?
My name is Ann [436]
<span><span>Large nameplate capacity per plant, typically around 1 GW.
</span><span>Typically 90% capacity factor, maximizing output from the nameplate capacity.
</span><span>Small fuel transportation volumes as the fissionable material just isn't that big or heavy compared to equivalent fossil fuel BTU sources.
</span><span>Low CO2 per MWH on a full life cycle basis. ~12 grams which is only slightly more than wind / solar.
This is a reason nuclear is a much better source for one of the major pressing problems of today than fossil fuels: global warming.</span>No particulate matter pollution.No sulfur dioxide or other chemical pollution.<span>Low fatalities per TWH. 
Nuclear is higher than renewables according to current statistics, but much, much lower than fossil fuel generation.</span></span>

Nuclear power generates lots of clean, stable energy.
