What is the albedo effect?<br><br> Do you think the earth is warming up?
meriva

Answer: Astronomers define the reflectivity of an object in space using a term called albedo. This is the amount of electromagnetic radiation that reflects away, compared to the amount that gets absorbed.

Explanation: But to answer the "Earth warming up" question, I'd have to say that for over millions of years, Earth's climate has warmed up and cooled down many times. However, today the planet is warming much faster than it has over human history. Global air temperatures near Earth's surface have gone up about 2 degrees Fahrenheit in the last century. However, other evidence suggests that the period of 2,000 to 3,000 million years ago was generally colder and more glaciated than the last 500 million years.

So, yes I do believe that the Earth is warming up but not to explode.

Meiosis is important in reproduction because it creates genetic diversity in the population.
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Meiosis can be described as a type of cell division in which four daughter cells are produced. The number of chromosomes in each of the daughter cells formed is half the number of chromosomes of the parent.

During this type of cell division, the processes of homologous recombination and crossing over occur. During crossing over, segments of DNA are exchanged between the homologous chromosomes due to which genetic diversity occurs.
