Design an image showcasing the thematic elements related to the environmental questions. The image could include a visual depiction of powerful storms (result of excessive convection), a representation of sun's rays being absorbed and reflected by greenhouse gases, and an industrial scene transforming towards use of wind energy as an alternative resource. Remember to exclude any textual elements from the visualization.

more powerful storms
potential for dangerous sunburns
air pollution
difficulty breathing
11.)What makes greenhouse gases different from other atmospheric gases?(1 point)

Greenhouse gases reduce the amount of natural resources on Earth.
Greenhouse gases allow thermal energy to pass through the atmosphere and back out into space.
Greenhouse gases trap thermal energy and reflect the sun’s harmful radiation back to Earth.
Greenhouse gases account for the direction in which water and air move.
12.)Use this paragraph: Students in an environmental club research global warming. They present their findings to local industry leaders to persuade them to take action against global warming.

Which action by industry leaders would directly address the causes of global warming?

(1 point)

developing a climate model to show climate change
agreeing to use wind energy as an alternative to burning fossil fuels
adopting a highway to ensure it remains free of trash and other debris
sending a team of scientists to study air temperature in a polar region

I'm not sure for the first one.

The second one is " greenhouse gases trap thermal energy".
The third one is "agreeing to use wind energy".

Have a good day

the angle at which the sun strikes Earth

high temperatures
the turning of circulating air currents
Hotter air rises and moves away from the equator, then cools and falls and moves back to the equator.
The Coriolis effect turns wind to the right in the Northern Hemisphere.
It turns the Gulf Stream northeast and the Brazil Current southwest.
warm and cold air masses
Ocean currents change the temperature of air masses. Warm ocean currents transport heat from the equator to the poles.
metal
more powerful storms
Greenhouse gases trap thermal energy and reflect the sun’s harmful radiation back to Earth.
agreeing to use wind energy as an alternative to burning fossil fuels
desert
14.Well low-pressure systems are associated with clouds and precipitation that minimize temperature changes throughout the day, where as high-pressure systems are normally associate with dry weather and more clear skies with larger diurnal temperature changes due to greater radiation at night and greater sunshine during the day.
15.Scientists that work in Antarctica mostly refer to the majority of the continent as being cold desert or polar desert. So like a tundra.

this is 100% right

First one is stronger storms

Ariana WARJ Is right on all of them.

Ariana WARJ is 100% CORRECT!!!!

trust her

i have some homework about the big energy idea energy transfer any ideas what it is

awww ty guys for saying i'm right😊

The answer is more powerful storms👍🏽

10.) To determine which of the given options is a result of excessive convection occurring in the atmosphere, we need to understand what excessive convection means. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids. In the atmosphere, it plays a crucial role in weather phenomena. Excessive convection refers to an intensified and increased movement of air masses, which can lead to certain effects.

Now, let's examine each option:
a) more powerful storms: Excessive convection can contribute to the formation of stronger storms such as hurricanes, cyclones, and thunderstorms. These storms are characterized by intense winds and heavy precipitation, making this option a likely result of excessive convection.

b) potential for dangerous sunburns: Excessive convection does not directly affect the potential for dangerous sunburns. Sunburns are primarily caused by excessive ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure, which is unrelated to the movement of air masses.

c) air pollution: Excessive convection can indirectly contribute to air pollution by transporting pollutants like smoke, smog, or dust over larger areas. However, air pollution can also occur through various other mechanisms, such as combustion processes and industrial emissions. Therefore, while excessive convection may play a part, it is not the sole cause of air pollution.

d) difficulty breathing: Excessive convection can create turbulent air conditions, which may lead to issues like increased pollen dispersion or the spread of allergens. These factors can contribute to difficulties in breathing, especially for individuals with respiratory conditions.

Based on the explanations above, the correct answer is more powerful storms.

11.) To identify the difference between greenhouse gases and other atmospheric gases, let's evaluate each option:

a) Greenhouse gases reduce the amount of natural resources on Earth: This statement is incorrect and unrelated to the characteristics of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases do not directly affect the availability of natural resources on Earth.

b) Greenhouse gases allow thermal energy to pass through the atmosphere and back out into space: This statement is partially incorrect. Greenhouse gases actually absorb thermal energy from the Earth's surface and trap it in the atmosphere, preventing it from dissipating back out into space.

c) Greenhouse gases trap thermal energy and reflect the sun’s harmful radiation back to Earth: This statement accurately describes the role of greenhouse gases. They trap thermal energy in the atmosphere, leading to the greenhouse effect, which warms the Earth's surface. However, they do not reflect the sun's harmful radiation back to Earth.

d) Greenhouse gases account for the direction in which water and air move: This statement is incorrect. The movement of water and air is primarily driven by other atmospheric phenomena such as pressure systems, winds, and ocean currents. Greenhouse gases do not directly control this movement.

Based on the explanations above, the correct answer is: Greenhouse gases trap thermal energy and reflect the sun's harmful radiation back to Earth.

12.) To identify the action by industry leaders that would directly address the causes of global warming, we need to analyze each option:

a) developing a climate model to show climate change: While developing a climate model can contribute to understanding the impact and patterns of climate change, it is not a direct action to address the causes of global warming.

b) agreeing to use wind energy as an alternative to burning fossil fuels: This option directly addresses one of the primary causes of global warming, which is the burning of fossil fuels. Switching to wind energy as a renewable and clean alternative reduces greenhouse gas emissions, making it the correct answer.

c) adopting a highway to ensure it remains free of trash and other debris: While adopting a highway to keep it free of trash and debris is an important environmental action, it is not directly related to addressing the causes of global warming.

d) sending a team of scientists to study air temperature in a polar region: Although studying air temperature in polar regions can provide valuable data for climate research, it is not a direct action to address the causes of global warming.

Based on the explanations above, the correct answer is: agreeing to use wind energy as an alternative to burning fossil fuels.
