What could have significantly affected climatic variations and advances and retreats of ice sheets during the Pleistocene epoch?
There are a number of potential causes including Milankovitch cycles which are variations in the orbital eccentricity, axial tilt and precession of the Earth as it orbits the sun. These are thought to have an impact on the climate of the Earth. Also factors such as variations in solar activity and variations in the Earth's albedo (the amount of solar radiation reflected back into space) are thought to play a part in fluctuations in climate.

Why is earth not effected?
Earth is not affected by the gravitational pull of other objects in space because it is in a stable orbit around the sun. The gravitational force between the Earth and the sun is much stronger than the gravitational pull from other objects in space. Additionally, Earth's distance from these objects and its velocity allow it to maintain its orbit without being significantly affected.

Which human activity has affected the number and quantity of gases in the Earth's atmosphere the most?

When a length is cold is measured with a metre stick why is this accurate enough?
Metre sticks are made of materials that are not greatly affected by temperature changes, such as metal or wood. These materials have low thermal expansion coefficients, meaning they do not significantly expand or contract with temperature variations. Therefore, the measurement remains accurate even when the metre stick is cold.
Median or the first quartile is least affected by one value which is significantly higher or lower than the rest?
