What are the three types of droughts?

• Meterotical, hydrolotical, agriculturic

• Meteorite, hydrolite, agricultural

• Meteorological, hydrological, agricultural

• Meteorigical, hydrologic, agriculturist

Which of the following is likely to be a future trend caused by droughts?

• loss of rissgrass that grows near rivers

• more severe and prolonged droughts and wildfires

• moisture increases, making global warming worse

• moisture decreases, allowing better absorption of water

Which ones are management strategies for droughts?

• Investing money in marine research, airborne resources

• building eco friendly dams with rocks and recycled materials, sustainable farming

• low-flow equipment, putting clean tap water in dried areas

• post-fire rehabilitation, airborne resources

Name some effects to ice glaciers due to hotter summers

• ice glaciers can grow back faster as temperatures are more unstable

• ice glaciers will melt faster during summer, and not fully grow back in winter

• ice glaciers melt in the summer and grow back in the winter, and climate change does not affect this as the arctic is sufficiently cold

• ice glaciers will stay frozen all year long

Which one of the following is the definition of thermal expansion?

• change in volume or size of given mass with temperature

• winds change direction, and cause temperature in the currents

• addition of freshwater from ice sheets

1. What is inundation?

• land rises higher than sea

• flooding caused by moving of ice glaciers

• land is covered by seawater

• seawater sinks ice glaciers

1. What are the two types of currents?

• Warm red and cool blue currnets

• atlantic and meridional currents

• South and north currents

• ocean currents and surface sea currents

Name what would happen if the AMOC collapsed.

• it would slow down

• it would speed up, and cause drastic changes in the ocean's pattern

• it would completely stop the currents

Explain how convection currents work.

• currents that are the main cause of earthquakes and tsunamis

• they are the result of differential heating

• hAmiLtOn aT thE cOnstiTuTioNAl ConVEnCtiOn

• currents that move opposite directions

Explain how fossils provide evidence for continental drift theory

• fossils were found in continents separated by oceans

• the pangea didn't align and thus fossils appeared as evidence

• this is due to the rift and valley system

• volcanoes leave fossils behind, giving proof of the CDT
