|
Greenhouse effect/global warming |
The earth gets energy from the sun. The earth cools through infrared radiation. Greenhouse gas in the atmosphere stops some of the energy from escaping, keeping out earth war. Carbon dioxide is making this layer thicker, causing our earth to heat up. |
|
Carbon Cycle |
Carbon dioxide is exchanged naturallybetween three active reservoirs: the atmosphere, theocean and biomass. Carbon travels through the food chain and then isreleased as carbon dioxide |
|

Lithosphere Hydrosphere Atmosphere Trophosphere Stratosphere Mesosphere Thermosphere Exosphere |
|
The big bang |
matter and radiation,was compressed into a hot, dense mass. 10 billion to 20 billion years ago, amassive blast allowed theuniverse expanded with incomprehensible speed from itspebble-size origin to astronomical scope. Expansionhas apparently continued, but much more slowly. as time passed and matter cooled,more diverse kinds of atoms began to form, and they eventually condensed intothe stars and galaxies of our present universe. |
