Which factors of Earth's position would contribute to long-term climate change?

Biology

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.

mojhsa [17]

Answer: 2-3

Explanation:

A biological neural network or neural circuit is a set of ordered synaptic connections that occur as a result of the binding of neurons to others in their corresponding regions following neural migration. At birth, a baby has an average of 100 billion neurons, but few neural connections. These will multiply as the child grows, through environmental, sensory, cognitive and movement stimulation. <u>Stimulating mobility and physical activity also has a positive effect on cognitive functioning by modifying the activity of certain brain areas</u>. Physical exercise has beneficial effects on brain function, such as promoting neuroplasticity and increasing learning and memory performance, which may be due to increased expression of various neural growth factors.

<u>Finally, environmental stimulation is basic for harmonious brain development and for laying the neurophysiological foundations of our children's future brains. </u>Thus, there are many mechanisms that nature has at its disposal to prevent babies from being left helpless.  All of them favour their relationship with adults and thus their neurons, at a time of maximum growth of their extensions, can form the brain circuits that allow the acquisitions that make them advance in their neurodevelopment. If babies do not receive from their adults sufficient affection and attention, brain growth will be much less and their neurodevelopment will inevitably be delayed, because what makes the brain grow and change is precisely the creation of new circuits as it learns new things, and those who can learn most are the most experienced. By aboyt 2-3 months is when circuits of the brain begin to be created.

mixas84 [53]

Child’s idea that suspense is created through delaying answers is the most effective way to create suspense. People can’t help but want to know answers. This is true whether or not they care about the people in the story. However, Child seems to think any unanswered questions create suspense, and I think the questions have to be about bad or dangerous situations.
