Why does temperature increase with altitude through the stratosphere?
(If two people answer, the first one to answer the question correctly will get brainliest.)
A. The stratosphere is closest to the sun.
B. All layers of the atmosphere increase in temperature with altitude.
C. The air molecules are closer together in the upper stratosphere.
D. The ozone layer is found in the stratosphere
Answer:
D. The ozone layer is found in the stratosphere
Explanation:
Because warm air rises and cool air sinks, the troposphere is unstable. In the stratosphere, temperature increases with altitude. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, which protects the planet from the Sun's harmful UV radiation.
In South China during the late Carboniferous period, was the air temperature warmer or cooler than the air temperature in the location today?
-Claim 1: It was warmer than it is today.
-Claim 2: It was cooler than it is today.
- Claim 3: No difference- the air temperature was the same as it is today.
Answer:
The correct option is:
1) It was warmer than it is today
Explanation:
Caboniferous period lasted from around 360 to 300 million years ago. The term Carboniferous means rich deposits of coal. The deposits of coals occured in different region of Europe, Asia and Africa, including South China. In the start of the period, the average temperate was 20°C° which was dropped to 12° in the middle of the period. This cooling and drying resulted in Carboniferous rainforest. Hence, the temperature was warmer than it is today.

What Are the (2) most important climatic factors for the Indian people?
Answer:
Latitudinal Location and Distance from the Ocean/Sea.
Explanation:
Latitudinal Location because it is the distance from the equator. The farther away from the equator you get, the hotter it gets, and vice versa.
Distance from the ocean/sea because the ocean/sea is a heat reservoir. It stores heat, and lets it out when its cool, therefore making places near the sea have either colder or warmer temperatures depending on the time of year.
