Explanation:
There are three ways heat is transferred into and through the atmosphere.
radiation. conduction. convection.
Radiation
Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation.If you have stood in front of a fireplace or near a campfire, you have felt the heat transfer known as radiation. The side of your body nearest the fire warms, while your other side remains unaffected by the heat. Although you are surrounded by air, the air has nothing to do with this transfer of heat. Heat lamps, that keep food warm, work in the same way.
Conduction
Welding iron is transferring heat by conduction
Conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one substance to another or within a substance. Have you ever left a metal spoon in a pot of soup being heated on a stove? After a short time, the handle of the spoon will become hot.This is due to transfer of heat energy from molecule to molecule or from atom to atom. Also, when objects are welded together, the metal becomes hot (the orange-red glow) by the transfer of heat from an arc.
Convection
convection is the transfer of heat energy in a fluid. This type of heating is most commonly seen in the kitchen with a boiling liquid.
Air in the atmosphere acts as a fluid. The sun's radiation strikes the ground, thus warming the rocks. As the rock's temperature rises due to conduction, heat energy is released into the atmosphere, forming a bubble of air which is warmer than the surrounding air. This bubble of air rises into the atmosphere. As it rises, the bubble cools with the heat contained in the bubble moving into the atmosphere
C.) Increased pollution in air, water, and soil.
By producing all the unnecessary things we are causing more pollution to be made by factories.
Answer:
D)clues about the past climate of Earth
Explanation:
The fossil record certainly has gaps, mostly because the conditions required to create fossils have been rare ever since life began on Earth. A very small percentage of animals that have lived and died ever became fossils. Thus, many pieces of the puzzle are missing; some will never be found.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Radiometric dating uses naturally occurring radioactive elements such as carbon-14 within the rock or fossil to estimate its approximate age. The half-life of the element must also be known. The amount of the radioactive trace element is compared to, in a ratio, with that of the number of the decay product elements. This approximate age can then be relatively compared to those of other rocks or fossils.
