Earth's terrestrial environments colder and/or drier favored the evolution of seeds since seeds can withstand those environments.

In which carbon pool does most of this extra carbon accumulate?

Most of the extra carbon from human activities accumulates in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, contributing to the greenhouse effect and climate change.


How can the periodic change in the shape of earths orbit cause a change in climate?

The periodic change in the shape of Earth's orbit, known as Milankovitch cycles, can impact Earth's climate by affecting the amount and distribution of solar radiation reaching the planet. These cycles influence the timing and intensity of the seasons, which in turn can lead to shifts in temperature and ice sheet formation. Over long periods of time, these changes can contribute to the onset of ice ages or interglacial periods.


Are climate and weather short term changes in earths greenhouse effect?

Weather refers to short-term atmospheric conditions in a specific place at a specific time, while climate refers to long-term patterns of temperature, humidity, wind, and precipitation in a region over time. The greenhouse effect influences both weather and climate by trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming.


How do sediments deposited in the ocean basins record the history of Earths climate and climate change?

I have the same question!! Well, these things show earth's geological history because they show the climate changes in the past and organisms that lived in different environments. Rocks change over time due to a series of events, showing evidence of things that once happened on Earth. They are very important to science!


Name two factors that cause season and climate to change?

1. The position of the sun. This is the biggest factor. The suns distance and angle to the earths surface effects the temperature and climate. 2. Sea temperature. The temperature of the seas help to form storms that effect the climate. People debate whether man is effecting the climate or not.

No, the cycle is driven by the Earths Tilt and Orbit. However the cycle will be modified in its effects by climate changes happening on the Earth.

What evidence of earths climate in the past supports the theory of contnental drift?

It is not so much the climate, but it is the tectonic plates movement, and fossils of extincted animals on different continents that support this theory. Also, fossils support the theory of evolution that was proven by Charles Darwin.


Explain the difference in the earths climate change when the earths orbit changes from elliptical to circular?

Earth's eccentricity Eccentricity is defined as the difference in shape between an ellipse and a perfect circle. In a similar fashion to Earth's obliquity, the more uniform Earth's orbit is (more like a perfect circle), the less difference there is in climate change throughout the year.
