Answer:
B) Regions such as Labrador are actually colder than England because colder Arctic water flows down to eastern North America and warm water from the equator flows to England
Explanation:
Even though Labrador and England are roughly on the same latitude, the climates in these two places are very different. The reason for this is the influence of the ocean currents on the climate. Labrador is influenced by dry and cold ocean currents, bringing in very cold weather conditions and harsh cold winds, thus not providing conditions for the growth of palm trees. On the other side of the Atlantic, England is influenced by warm and wet ocean current, the Gulf Stream. This brings in relatively small fluctuations in the temperature, with both the summer and the winter being mild and without extreme temperatures. Also, it brings in a lot of precipitation, so the palm trees manage to survive with only slight adaptations.
Answer:
5) All of the above are correct.
Explanation:
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. When its concentration in the atmoshpere rises above normal, it can affect the climate pattern and lead to climate change.
Carbon dioxide prevents outgoing solar radiation from escaping the earth's atmosphere and this warms the earth surface. The more the presence of the gas, the more heating that would result.
Excessive release of carbon dioxide causes a phenomenon known as global warming. Global warming is simply the warming of the globe.
The consequences includes:
- Melting of Greenland ice sheets as temperature spikes.
- Glaciers and permafrosts in temperate and polar regions will melt.
- Ocean acidification due to dissolution of excess carbon dioxide in sea water to form carbonic acid.
- There is general increase in surface temperature due to accelerated warming.
A coral is a type of Marine animal (Invertebrate) that secretes calcium carbonate to form an organic rock home.
