Answer:

Until early 1970's the Turkish Straits were known as a rich and productive marine area. The Straits also used to play an important role as a biological corridor between the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, and acted as an acclimatization zone for the Mediterranean species.

The Tigris and Euphrates rivers provided Mesopotamia with enough fresh water and fertile soil to allow ancient people to develop irrigation and grow supplies surplus.

The role the Tigris and Euphrates river played in the development of civilization is that they enriched the soil and helped farmers grow supplies surpluses.

klasskru [66]

\Large{\underline{\boxed{\mathfrak \pink{Question:-}}}}

Global climate change is most likely the result of _______. Environmental issues: Select the best answer from the choices provided.

A. Increased carbon dioxide in the air.

B. Diminishing natural resources.

C. Decreased Oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

D. Biodiversity.

\Large{\underline{\boxed{\mathfrak \pink{Answer:-}}}}

\normalsize\star\textsf{Correct \: Option:-}

\qquad\bullet Option"A" is correct: Increase in Carbon dioxide in Air.

\normalsize\star\textsf{Related \: Questions:-}

a.) <u>How</u><u> </u><u>global climate change is related to the increase of carbon dioxide </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>Air</u><u> </u><u>?</u>

\qquad\bullet The Increase of Carbon dioxide in Air results in increase of Global warming(Green house effect).

\qquad\bullet Green house effect : A building mostly made of glass for growing or shelter in the delicate plant is called greenhouse. the glass walls of greenhouse allows sun rays to pass through the interior.However, reflected back infrared rays are not allowed to escape through the glass walls. Carbon dioxide gas and water vapours present inside the glass house further trap the heat and make the greenhouse warmer than the outside air.

\qquad\bulletThe atmosphere cover around the earth ,acts similar to the glass walls of greenhouse. the air cover solar radiation to pass through it to the Earth’s surface, and prevent the long wave infrared radiation to escape into the space.Gases such as Carbondioxide,Nitrogen oxide,CFCs,ozone are the Greenhouse gases and among all of them "Carbon dioxide" is the most important gas.These greenhouse gases trap the heat reflected by the earth.

\qquad\bullet The heating up of the atmosphere leads to an increase in Earth's temperature.This phenomenon is called " Global warming or Green house effect.

b.) <u>What</u><u> </u><u>are</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>effects of </u><u>G</u><u>lobal warming</u><u>?</u>

\qquad\bullet Increase in earth temperature will cause a change in weather and precipitation patterns on the earth.

\qquad\bullet As we know the fact that " An increase of less as 1°C in Earth's temperature can lead to melting of polar ice caps and consequent rise in sea level".The sudden rise of sea level can submerge a number of major cities of the world which are located along the coasts.

\qquad\bullet Global warming poses a threat of recurrence of "Dust Bowl condition of 1930's".Dust Bowl is an area where vegetation has been lost and soil reduced to dust making it suspectable to erosion.

\qquad\bullet One of major danger of global warming is " Methane burp"which is caused by the melting of Methane hydrates in permafrost of polar ice caps & on the sea floor.
