Answer:

The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere. Radiatively active gases in a planet's atmosphere radiate energy in all directions.

Yes earth needs a greenhouse effect to support life .

When the solar radiation falls on the earth's surface, put of the radiation is absorbed and a part is reflected back inte space. Greenhouse gases like carbon diraide and methane present in the atmosphere absorb some of the radiated heat. These trapped radiation further warm the earth The trapping of the sun addition by the gases present in the urthi atmosphere is called greenhouse effect. Without the natural greenhouse effect, life would not have been possible on the carth because in the absence of such an ctfect the cu surface would have been too cold to sustain life.

Many aspects of global climate are changing .High temperature extremes and heavy precipitation events are increasing, glaciers and snow cover are shrinking, and sea ice is retreating. ... Greenhouse gas emissions from human activities will continue to affect Earth's climate for decades

currently due to the use of many vehicles , fossils etc a lot of pollution is caused and concentration of CO2 (carbon dioxide ) has increased which is causing the earth to become to hot which is leading to melting of glaciers which causes global warming .

hope you've understood ☺️

netineya [11]

Answer: Natural selection can be defined as the differential survival and reproduction of members of the population of a species that have suitable traits to survive in a population of species.

Explanation:

The punctuated changes in the population of species have been found inordinately faster in the geological time scale, but changes per-generation have been relatively slow. Also, the rate of evolution in such a population is also slow. The punctuated changes in the population are because of evolution but the per-generation changes are the outcomes of the natural selection, in which only the beneficial traits are passed from one generation to another.

Only individuals belonging to the same species are able to
True [87]

There are some possible answers which all mean the same thing:

- Produce fertile offspring

- Produce offspring

- Reproduce


→ Only individuals of a same species (sometimes genus) can reproduce because in order to reproduce animals need to have a similar genetic code, and there is now code more similar than the one of individuals of their own species.



Hope it helped,
