Ice Ages
Caused by long periods of reduced atmospheric and surface temperature, widespread continental glaciation and cooling are called Ice Ages or Glacial Ages. Questions about the most recent and current geologic period, the Quaternary, and other ice ages are what this category is all about.

Where on earth did the ice age happen?
The ice age occurred in various regions around the world, including North America, Europe, and Asia. Glaciers covered much of these continents during the peak of the ice age, shaping the landscape and influencing climate patterns.
How many people survived the ice age?
Many millions of people survived the Ice Age. The Ice Age only affected Europe and North America. Lands further south were essentially unaffected.
Why do scinetists believe the ice age encouraged people to migrate and spread?
It was not the Ice Age that encouraged people to migrate but the warm periods between Glacial Maximums.
Ice Ages are mainly long periods of intense cold interspersed with short periods of warmth. When the warm periods started the ice retreated, animals gradually moved into the new areas looking for food and people followed them as the animals were their main source of food. This was, of course, before people were able to farm.
What are the names of the baby dinos in ice age 3?

What is the estimate of people who survived the first Ice Age?
It was very difficult for early humans to survive. They had to adapt. The Ice Age was a threat to human kind. Eventually they learned to adapt and they survived... most of the time!
Did the yeti exist during the Ice Age?
That's a tough question. But, most of the questions I've looked up about the yeti say that they can be found in the long ways of the Himalayans. With that positive information on the yeti, I do have a belief that he did live during the Ice Age, the Ice Age was the perfect climate for him. From, lillypad20
It is possible that Ice Age people had some form of animal companionship, but there is limited evidence to confirm this. Dogs are believed to have been domesticated during the Ice Age, and some researchers suggest that they may have been kept as pets or used for hunting by ancient peoples.
How many seconds old is a 21 year old?
1 minute = 60 seconds
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 day = 24 hours
1 year = 365 days
21 years = (21 x 365 x 24 x 60 x 60) = 662,256,000.
Add 5 days for 5 leap years in 21 years: 5 days = (5 x 24 x 60 x 60) = 432,000, seconds
On his 21st birthday, at the exact hour, minute, and second that he was born, the 21-yr-old is (662,256,000 + 432,000)
= 662,688,000 seconds old.
Was there an ice age 120 thousand years ago?
The Earth was in an interglacial period of warming called the Sangamon Interglacial at this time period. The Illinois glaciation preceded it, and the Wisconsin episode of glaciation followed it. We are currently in an interglacial period known as the Holocene.
Yes we did we ate and made clothes out of wooly mammoths
What is the origin of the name Barbosa?
I have read that "barba" means beard, but in this case refers to plants of the onion family (that were said to display "beards"). The -osa ending was used to indicate that something is widespread, so the name referred to a region where onions, garlic etc. were widely grown.
People in Spain sometimes took their names from the areas they lived.
If an ice age occurs what is the result?
the result is that animals will migrate or freeze to death and the plants die and move to other places. :) :0
In some individuals, pica is a sign of emotional problems, such as stress, obsessive-compulsive disorder or a developmental disorder.
A thorough medical evaluation can help determine if pica is due to an underlying medical condition. If the cause of pica is an emotional or developmental issue, cognitive behavioral therapy may be helpful.
Why do people have to crunch ice?
Crunching ice can be a habit or a way to cope with stress or anxiety. Some individuals may find the sensation of chewing on ice satisfying or enjoyable. However, excessive ice consumption can damage teeth and should be avoided.
After the last ice age stranded ice blocks left behind by the continental glacier melted and formed?
glacial lakes. These lakes were formed by the meltwater from the ice blocks, and often occupied depressions in the landscape created by glacial activity. They were temporary features that eventually drained as the ice melted away completely.
What are two ways in which glaciers erode Earth's surface?
When glaciers form they scrape earth's surface as they advance. Also when glaciers melt it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land creating various land forms.
