The obliquity (axial tilt), precession (wobble), and the eccentricity (how close to being circular) of the Earth’s orbit, comprise the Milankovitch cycle. These three factors affect the amount of heat energy from the sun (solar heat) directed to Earth, influencing climactic changes and patterns.
The tilt of the axis mainly affects the amount of solar heat each hemisphere receives. The greater the tilt, the more solar energy is directed at the northern hemisphere. Along with precession, they also affect the length of days and nights experienced by certain parts of the Earth.
The eccentricity of the orbit affects the distance of the Earth to the Sun during its revolution in orbit. The orbit is an elliptical path followed by the Earth, with the Sun not exactly at the center. Thus, there is a time when the Earth is closest to the Sun (perihelion) and this allows the Earth to experience radiation the most. On the other hand, there is also a time when Earth is farthest to the Sun (aphelion). This difference in distance creates a heat exposure retained by the Earth. From the time of perihelion it absorbs so much solar energy and is gradually expended revolving but at the same time still absorbing solar heat – hotter global temperature
.
If the orbit was more circular, the distance of the Earth to the Sun will always be the same at any point in the orbit. Thus, allowing equal exposure to the Earth at all times. There will be no point in time in which the Earth will absorb so much heat. This will cause a cooler global temperature compared to the elliptical orbit.
Answer: diploid generation
Explanation: MORPHOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE MOSSES
In vascular plants the dominant stage of this lifecycle is the diploid generation. In mosses, the dominant stage is the haploid generation (the gametophyte). This means that the green, leafy gametophytic tissue is haploid (has only one set of chromosomes). hope this helps. Can u give me brainliest
Answer:
Hydrolysis reactions use water to breakdown polymers into monomers and is the opposite of dehydration synthesis, which forms water when synthesizing a polymer from monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.
Lion, Spotted hyena, African wild dog, Leopard, Cheetah, and probably crocodillians. Hope this helped!
