The answer is (D). Creating more fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are formed by the compression of the dead matter of plants and animals within the crust of the Earth. The plants and animals that died due to some calamity millions of years ago got covered by the rocks and soil. The internal heat of the Earth and the pressure due to the weight of the rocks turned them into thick dark crude oil. This process is natural and time consuming. It is impossible to recreate this process by artificial means on a large scale to make more solid fuels.

Interestingly, mining of extra-terrestrial planets, moons and asteroids is an ongoing research and the means to do it are being prototypes in the research laboratories of NASA and other space organisations.

Alexandra [31]

The third and last option is correct.


Species in the past (referring to dinosaurs) were more massive.

\bf~CO_{2} levels where higher in the past, which meant that plants prospered during that time since they had a easy access to food. That contributes to the fact that herbivores could grow bigger because there was more food. Which in turn, increases the size of early carnivores which eat bigger herbivores.




Hope it helped,


Happy homework/ study/ exam!
