Answer:

After World War II ended in 1945, Europe was divided into Western Europe and Eastern Europe by the Iron Curtain. Western Europe promoted capitalist democracies, and Eastern Europe came under the Communist influence of the Soviet Union.

Because so much had been destroyed during the war, many European countries were heavily in debt to the United States and could not afford to rebuild. There were shortages of food and raw materials; thousands of refugees were still homeless. Due to these difficulties, there were almost no jobs and unemployment was high.

denpristay [2]

The hypothesis of continental drift came up in 1910 by German scientist Alfred Wegener. The idea is that when you look at a map south America and Africa seem to fit perfectly together. this would have made one super Continent called Pangaea. so in order for it to get to where it is today something must have happened that is where the idea of floating continents came in. this theory is no longer relevant as now scientists found they would have to adjust to fit the size if both continents. I hope this helps.

zvonat [6]

Answer: C. The overall temperature of the Earth will increase.

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining that Earth has a layer, the atmosphere, that is almost transparent to solar radiation, which is composed mainly of shortwave radiation (ultraviolet (UV) and visible light). Then, this layer allows to pass most of the sunlight (visible light and a small part of the UV radiation), without being absorbed.

When this radiation reaches the Earth, it is absorbed by the water $(H_{2}O$ ), soil, plants, animals; well, everything that inhabits and also the buildings. Once this absorption process ends, the light turns into long wave (IR) radiation, generating heat that is then released into outer space and known as albedo.

However, due to climate change (caused by the humankind), the Earth now tends to absorb more energy than it emits to the space as IR radiation. If this process is mantained for a long term, the planet's global temperature will highly increase.
