As it moves around the Earth, the side we can see gradually becomes more illuminated by direct sunlight. After a week, the moon is 90 degrees away from the sun in the sky and is half illuminated, what we call "first quarter" because it is about a quarter of the way around the Earth.

Speculate on how higher sea-surface temperatures (sst) might impact earth's greenhouse effect.
Aleks [24]

The SST or sea surface temperature refers to the temperature of the water close to the surface of the ocean. Sea surface temperature influences the behavior of the atmosphere of the Earth, so their initialization into the atmospheric model is essential. While SST plays a vital role for tropical cyclogenesis, it is also essential in predicting the formation of sea breezes and sea fog.  

The changes in SST reflects the overall trend of warming of the climatic system, and in turn, affects the climate and weather patterns globally. If the SST is too warm, the humidity upsurges and the greenhouse effect enhances.

Water leaves the internal cavity of a sponge through the
Trava [24]

If I'm not mistaken, it leaves through the osculum which is a cavity located on the upper part of a sponge.

Sponges feed through a process called filtration, which means that they filter the water in search of nutrients. And after they collect everything they need from the water, they need to let it out somehow; through the osculum.



Hope it helped,
