23
Which of the following best describes climate?
Climate cannot be predicted.
Climate rarely occurs.
Conditions over a long period of time
conditions at a specific time and place.
24

25
Dead Zones are formed when water has
Too many insects
Too few nutrients
Too many nutrients
A lot of oxygen
26
What might happen if too much carbon dioxide & other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere
the temp on Earth may go up, so there will be global warming
temperatures will be the same
the temperature on Earth may go down, so m global cooling
the oceans may dry up, so there will be global drying
27
Why are polar climates located in the Arctic and northern latitudes?
The Sun's rays strike the poles indirectly, making it cold.
it has no mountains
