What does climate change mean

Biology

RideAnS [48]3 years ago

Climate change refers to significant changes in global temperature, precipitation, wind patterns and other measures of climate that occur over several decades or longer.

The seas are rising. The foods we eat and take for granted are threatened. Ocean acidification is increasing. Ecosystems are changing, and for some, that could spell the end of certain regions the way we have known them. And while some species are adapting, for others, it’s not that easy.

Evidence suggests many of these extreme climate changes are connected to rising levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere — more often than not, the result of human activities.

Climate change, therefore, is a change in the typical or average weather of a region or city. This could be a change in a region's average annual rainfall, for example. Or it could be a change in a city's average temperature for a given month or season. Climate change is also a change in Earth's overall climate.

Hope this helps you:)

horrorfan [7]

Si la pared celular en una célula vegetal proporciona rigidez. Crees que una célula animal podría desarrollar está característic
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

La pared de la célula vegetal, es un recurso evolutivo para adaptarse y sobrevivir al medio, la célula animal no requiere la presencia de pared por eso sus características son diferentes debido a sus necesidades, no creo que la desarrolle, puesto que tener pared no la va a hacer avanzar o evolucionar para perfeccionar la especie, actualmente la célula animal contiene una membrana que le permite realizar proceso con mayor facilidad, como la consecución de nutrientes, procesos de excreción, reproducción y movilidad, dentro de un organismo como el hombre sería inviable este mecanismo, sin embargo hay especies que se han adaptado y tienen paredes en su superficie como el caso de las algas y las bacterias, teniendo en cuenta estos seres como ejemplo se sabe que una de las ventajas de tener pared es la resistencia a lesiones como las provocadas por antibióticos, soportan fuerzas osmoticas e intervienen en el crecimiento, convirtiéndose en una armadura para el resto del organismo, de este modo sería como beneficiaría a la célula animal.
