Answer 2

The statement that says that the Earth is presently in an 'interglacial period' is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

• An interglacial period is characterized by 'warmer temperatures spanning the entire globe'.

• This period lasts for thousands of years and only ends with the beginning of an 'ice age'.

• The present interglacial period that we are in began around 12,000 years ago with the 'end of the Pleistocene age'.

• It is estimated that 'an ice age' is due right after the ongoing interglacial period.
