Which of the following best describes the relationship between climate change and global warming?

The increase in temperature is one aspect of climate change and can result in the increased temperature of the planet, which is known as global warming.

The terms climate change and global warming can be used interchangeably because they mean the same thing.

Climate change is defined only by the changing of temperature, which can result in the increased temperature of the planet known as global warming.

Since the 1950s, there has been a steady increase in the levels of atmospheric $$CO_2$$ as a result of

an increase in naturally occurring forest fires.

All of the answer choices are correct.

releases more heat than carbon dioxide.

is less common in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide.

Climate can best be described as

the average weather patterns in a given area over long periods of time.

the temperature and rainfall of a specific area over the course of a year.

how hot or cold a location is, based on its altitude.

Over the past several decades, the overall trend for earth's temperatures has been

increases in overall global temperatures at an accelerating rate, a phenomenon known as global warming.

cyclical periods of warming and cooling, known as global climate change.

a gentle trend towards colder winters and hotter summers, which averages out to be very little overall global temperature changes.

decreases in overall global temperatures at an accelerating rate, a phenomenon known as global cooling.

The greenhouse effect

is caused by gases such as carbon dioxide trapping heat in the earth's atmosphere.

decreases the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.

increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.

is due to gases forming a barrier around the earth and insulating the earth from the sun's rays.

How do greenhouse gases cause climate warming?

Greenhouse gases prevent radiation of infrared energy back into space, trapping the heat near the earth's surface and causing the climate to warm.

Infrared energy from space is absorbed by greenhouse gases in the upper atmosphere, which then re-emit the heat toward the surface of the earth, causing the climate to warm.

Greenhouse gases block solar energy from entering the lower level of the atmosphere.

Solar energy is absorbed by greenhouse gases in the upper atmosphere and re-emitted toward the earth's surface as heat, causing the climate to warm.

Which of the following is the most likely cause for the sudden sharp increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels?

Human activities, including the use of fossil fuels, changes in agricultural practices, and deforestation

Natural events, including fires and volcanic activity

Respiration from the earth's many living organisms

Normal fluctuations in the natural levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere

How does climate change affect earth's oceans?

The pH level of the ocean will shift to a more acidic environment, leading to stress and the possible extinction of many species of shellfish and corals.

The pH level of the ocean will shift to a more basic environment, leading to a decrease in overall productivity.

As levels of carbon in the atmosphere increase, the amount of carbon in the ocean decreases proportionately.

Excess carbon in the atmosphere is absorbed by the ocean, which directly increases ocean temperature.

Why is ocean acidification problematic for some marine life?

It decreases the amount of carbonate in the oceans, making the creation of shells and other hard structures difficult for marine life.

The acidification causes metals to precipitate out of the water and deposit on the backs of aquatic organisms.

It decreases the availability of oxygen in the water for the respiration needs of aquatic organisms.

It decreases the stratification of water temperatures, so that marine organisms have smaller ranges in which to survive.

As global temperatures increase, which of the following scenarios are most likely to happen?

Glaciers and snow coverage decrease.

Sea surface temperatures and ocean heat content decrease.

Extreme weather events decrease.

Temperatures and humidity decrease.

Carbon sinks are reservoirs that hold large amounts of carbon. Which of the following are considered to be carbon sinks?

All of the answer choices are correct.

Which of the following acts as a source of carbon dioxide within the carbon cycle?

Respiration from humans and animals

Which statement below best summarizes the overall purpose of the light-dependent reactions?

The light-dependent reactions capture the energy from the sun and transfer it to high-energy molecules.

The light-dependent reactions capture the energy from the sun and convert it to glucose.

The light-dependent reactions use energy to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrate molecules.

The light-dependent reactions convert high-energy molecules into carbohydrates.

What is the main difference in the formation of coal vs. the formation of natural gas and oil?

Natural gas and oil formed mainly from deposits of plants and animals living in oceans and coal formed mainly from the remains of plants and animals in swampy anoxic environments.

Coal formed mainly from deposits of plants and animals living in oceans and natural gas and oil formed mainly from the remains of plants and animals in swampy anoxic environments.

Natural gas and oil require intense heat and pressure to form and coal only requires an anoxic environment.

Coal takes several million years to form and natural gas and oil take much less time, roughly several thousand years.

As climate change continues, the prevalence of vector-borne disease has increased. Why is this?

As climates have warmed and winters have become less severe, the range of mosquitos and ticks has increased, bringing with them the diseases they carry.

Diseases are more contagious in warmer weather, so as climates have warmed, vector-borne diseases spread faster.

The bacteria and viruses that cause disease multiply more rapidly in warmer weather, so as climates have warmed, the pathogens that cause disease are more prevalent.

As climates have changed, habitats have changed. Organisms that carry disease have been displaced from their original habitats and have found new habitats, bringing the spread of disease with them.

How do invasive species impact ecosystems?

All of the answer choices are correct.

They occupy niches that other organisms traditionally occupy.

They outcompete other organisms for limited resources.

They are more capable of adapting to rapidly changing climates.
