Answer:

B. Heat absorption increases as the albedo decreases

Explanation:

The ice has very high albedo. The reason for this is that it has white coloration, and the light coloration are highly reflective of the sunlight. As the ice melts though, the water surface increases, and the water, unlike the ice, has the capability of absorbing much more heat. With much more water, there will be much more absorption of heat, and since the water has low albedo on only 10, the albedo will decrease on a global level.

What was the motivation behind Europe's colonization of Africa?
Irina18 [472]

The main motivation of the European colonial powers to colonize Africa was the economic interest, or to put it more specifically, exploiting the natural resources, cheap and abundant labor force, and making wealth out of it.

Africa is a continent that is very rich in natural resources. Lot of those natural resources were very expansive, in high demand, and highly appreciated outside of Africa. The Europeans saw a great opportunity to make themselves even more wealthy, as they had far superior military and weapons, so conquering would not be a problem, and the natives were not using those natural resources nor knew that they are valuable in other places of the world.

The Europeans used the suitable circumstances, and numerous colonial European countries managed to get a piece of the African land, making lot of wealth out if it until the end of the colonial period.

In 2000, a population
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The population of the city will reach 2 million people in 2025.

Explanation:

The city in question has one million people. The doubling time of the population is estimated at 25 years. Double of one million is two million, and with the population being one million in 2000, 2025 will be the year when the city will have a population of two million since the doubling time is 25 years.

s Doubling of the population in 25 years is not something that happens rarely, but it mostly happens in smaller cities or towns, as the population needed for doubling the preexisting one shouldn't be that large. A city of one million people to double its population in just 25 years is another story. Such a scenario will mean a highly centralized region, with most of the region getting depopulated, while the city in question gets a huge amount of new residents, causing a lot of urbanistic challenges.
