Solar flares occur constantly, and would have to be HUGE to impact the Earth's climate (remember, climate is measured over long periods of time).  While solar flares do affect weather and other things, such as radio waves, they don't affect climate.  So C is out.  Variations in Earth's orbit are short-lived, so A is out.  Earth's reflectivity would need to change in order to contribute to climate change, so ignore answer B.  

Now let's look at D and E.  Ocean circulation is one of the most important factors affecting Earth's climate, and the primary factor leading to changes in ocean circulation is plate tectonics, or, more specifically, continental drift due to plate tectonics.  Plate tectonics cause continental drift, which changes ocean currents, which leads to ice ages, ice cap melting, and global climate change.  D and E are correct.

Which of the following is homozygous dominant? a AA b Aa c aa
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: a). AA

Explanation: Every trait is controlled by at least a pair of gene. Genes have different forms known as alleles. Alleles can be dominant or recessive. A dominant allele expresses itself in the presence of a recessive allele and masks the effect of a recessive allele. A recessive allele cannot express itself in the presence of a dominant allele and it's effect is masked by a dominant allele. Dominant alleles are usually written in upper cases such as A, T, while recessive alleles are usually written in lower cases such as a, t. The two alleles that determines a trait is called a genotype. A genotype can be homozygous if the two alleles are identical such as in AA or aa

and can be heterozygous if the two alleles are not identical such as in Aa, Tt.
