Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sunspots increase and decrease through an average cycle of eleven years.

There is a debate of how much this sunspot would affect the earth`s temperature, the earth`s climate is sensitive to very weak changes in the Sun`s energy. During maximum sunspot activity, there`s a very slight increase in the energy output of the sun. Ultraviolet radiation increases during high sunspot activity, and this can have a large effect on Earth`s atmosphere.

I hope it helps!

The correct answer is option C.

The sudden increase in sunspots will make the Earth more warmer because the more the sunspots, more energy is delivered to the atmosphere. This increases the global temperatures of the Earth.
