Answer:

The variation of sunlight reaching Earth is one cause of ice ages. .

Explanation:

When less sunlight reaches the northern latitudes, temperatures drop and more water freezes into ice, starting an ice age.

When more sunlight reaches the northern latitudes, temperatures rise, ice sheets melt, and the ice age ends.

The onset of an ice age is related to the Milankovitch cycles - where regular changes in the Earth's tilt and orbit combine to affect which areas on Earth get more or less solar radiation. When all these factors align so the northern hemisphere gets less solar radiation in summer, an ice age can be started.

Answer:

Oneida Lake

Finger Lakes are known to be a collection of eleven narrow lakes in the centralized area of New York City. They came to be through the formation of certain glacial carving of the old stream valley. The scientists that make maps studied these group of lakes and felt they looked like the fingers of human beings and that was how they got their name.  

Oneida Lake, found in Syracuse, New York city is not part of the eleven group of lakes, known as the Finger Lakes, but it’s rather it is known to be the thumb. Humans know this lake as one to have both opposition and apposition movements.
