Why does the effect of rising global temperatures in the ocean have such a broad impact on Earth?
A. As water cools, it can hold less carbon dioxide, so more CO is released into the atmosphere, where it is a greenhouse gas.
B. As water warms, it can hold less carbon dioxide, so more CO is released into the atmosphere, where it is a greenhouse gas.
C. As water warms, it can hold more carbon dioxide, so less CO is released into the atmosphere, where it is a greenhouse gas.
D. There is no overwhelming effect due to rising global temperatures.
Answer (2)
Rising global temperatures have a broad effect on the ocean because as the ocean warms it can hold less carbon dioxide, so more CO2 is released into the atmosphere, where it is a greenhouse gas continuing to facilitate the same process the answer is (B).
The effect of rising global temperatures in the ocean broadly impacts Earth because warmer water holds less carbon dioxide, which is released into the atmosphere, enhancing the greenhouse effect. This process creates a feedback loop, further accelerating climate change and its associated consequences. Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
