Question

Which set describes the link between carbon dioxide and climate in a logical order?

A. increase in atmospheric concentrations, increase in emissions, increase in global temperatures


B. increase in atmospheric concentrations, increase in global temperatures, increase in emissions


C. increase in emissions, increase in atmospheric concentrations, increase in global temperatures


D. increase in global temperatures, increase in atmospheric concentrations, increase in emissions

Answer 1

D. increase in global temperatures, increase in atmospheric concentrations, increase in emissions

Answer 2

Option C, increase in emissions, increase in atmospheric concentrations, increase in global temperatures

Step-by-step explanation:

All the industries, automobiles and other sources of carbon , releases large amount of carbon dioxide which further accumulate to increases the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. Enhanced carbon concentration in the atmosphere restricts the escape of heat from the earth (Green house effect) thereby increasing the temperature of earth. Thus, first the carbon dioxide is released, then its concentration increases and lastly the global temperature rises.

Therefore, the logical order given in option C is correct.
