Elevated carbon dioxide levels have been shown to contribute to the greenhouse effect, resulting in an increase in mean global temperature. ecosystems where the largest warming has already occurred include snow-covered northern coniferous forests, tundra, and arctic sea ice habitats. which statement best explains how the elimination of ice-covered ecosystems affects the rise or fall in global temperature?
a. melting ice releases dissolved ozone gas, which adds to the greenhouse effect.
b. large-scale ice melts actually contribute toward lowering global temperatures by decreasing salinity of the oceans.
c. more reflective surfaces of ice are replaced with darker, more absorptive surfaces, thereby contributing to the warming trend.
d. carbon dioxide levels are lowered as a result of greater volume of water to accommodate greater dissolved gas.

C

Explanation:

Ice-covered surfaces are highly reflective of the sun's rays therefore prevent those areas from warming as much as the areas where the ice is replaced with darker, less reflective surfaces which absorb heat and thus contribute more to global warming. Albedo is the percentage of radiation reflected by the earth's surface. Clear surfaces have greater albedo values than dark surfaces.

the answer is c cumulus. cumulus clouds can be seen on a gray and rainy day, because cumulus clouds create thunderstorms. give me brainliest if right.

a adaptation is when organism changes itself to fit the environment

ex. when its cold outside i wear a jacket

hello everyone my name is nevaeh, i know everyone needs in some way, shape, or form and i am willing to provide. i set up a google classroom where people can ask me questions and get on work. no question is a stupid question so do not be afraid to ask. i usually only focus on core subjects but if you ask i will with other specialized subjects. i can do essays all the way to power points : )

my google classroom is the code is 7hr2k4

~ use this opportunity to get more so you can thrive in the classroom
