What are two climate feedback mechanisms that are taking place on or around the Antarctic ice shelf?

Answers

Answer 1
Ice albedo. Ice is white and very reflective, in contrast to the ocean surface, which is dark and absorbs heat faster. As the atmosphere warms and sea ice melts, the darker ocean absorbs more heat, causes more ice to melt, and makes the Earth warmer overall. The ice-albedo feedback is a very strong positive feedback.
Answer 2
Climate change is making the ice melt faster which causes the overall earths overall temperature to rise. After ice melts it literally has nowhere else to go,so ocean levels rise which ultimately could lead to the drowning of all cities around the world. Basically killing off everyone

California’s San Andres fault is known for its earthquakes. The Pacific plate and North American plate are sliding against each other at this example of a strike-slip fault boundary.

What is Strike-slip fault boundary?

Strike-slip faults are the vertical or nearly vertical fractures that occur where the blocks have mostly moved horizontally over each other. If the block opposite an observer, then the fault moves to the right, the slip style is termed right-lateral in this case and if the block moves to the left, the motion is termed left-lateral motion of the block.

The cause of the strike-slip fault earthquakes is due to the movement of the two plates which are against one another and the release of built up strain from these plates. As the larger plates are pushed or pulled in different directions they build up the strain against adjacent plates until it finally fails. The Pacific plate and North American plate sliding against each other is an example of strike-slip fault.

A friend claims her pet ferret is descended from the wild polecat. You want to learn more about this ferret ancestor. An online search shows several different kinds of polecats. How could you figure out which one is the ferret ancestor?

Answers

In order to identify the most recent common ancestor of an animal, the physical and genetic makeup of the organisms must be compared. The two organisms must have striking similarities in order to be considered as closely related.

Despite the difference in their size, the domestic ferret has a great resemblance with the features of an Eastern European polecat. In addition, they have the ability to cross-breed with polecats. Therefore, the most recent ancestor of the ferret is the Eastern European polecat.

PLZ thank and five star

and a brainliest would be nice:-)

Answer: D. the amount of space something takes up

============================================================

Explanation:

For example, if you have a 2 inch by 3 inch by 5 inch rectangular block, then the volume it takes up is 2*3*5 = 30 cubic inches. We can fit 30 smaller unit cubes in this 2 by 3 by 5 block.

Another example of volume would be saying that a container can hold 5 gallons, which is the amount of liquid inside the container when it's completely full.

----------

Extra info:

Choice A is false because a substance that does not have a definite shape would be a liquid. Liquids can flow and form to fit any volume. This also applies to a gas as well.Choice B is false because this refers to a solid. A block of ice has a definite shape which is in a block or cube form. Melting that ice will turn it into a liquid which then doesn't have a set shape.Choice C is false as this likely is talking about temperature. Temperature is the measure of how fast a particle is moving. The faster the particle, the more energy and higher temperature it has. On a cold day, the air particles aren't moving as fast compared to a much warmer day when they speed up more.

Some humans are using more than their fair share of water and it is having a huge impact on the environment. People tend to let their water run while brushing their teeth or shaving, and those are just two of the major problems. There may also be leakages, which can waste gallons among gallons of water. Wasting water hurts humans, it leaves them with less accessible, usable water. Additionally, wasting too much water can hurt the local environment as it drains too much water away from the natural ecosystem.
