Climate Change Quiz

What are the main greenhouse gases responsible for climate change?

• Oxygen, argon, and water vapor

• Carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide

• Sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen dioxide

• Helium, neon, and krypton

How does climate change affect biodiversity?

• It has no impact on biodiversity

• It increases the number of species in an ecosystem

• It leads to a more stable and balanced ecosystem

• It alters habitats, disrupts food chains, and causes species to migrate or go extinct.

Which renewable energy source is most commonly used to combat climate change?

• Coal energy

• Solar energy

• Natural gas energy

• Nuclear energy

What is the average global temperature rise due to climate change?

• 3 degrees Celsius

• 0.5 degrees Celsius

• 1.2 degrees Celsius

• 5 degrees Celsius

How does ocean acidification impact marine life?

• It increases the population of marine life

• It makes it difficult for marine organisms to build and maintain their calcium carbonate shells and skeletons.

• It helps marine organisms to thrive and reproduce

• It has no impact on marine life

What are the sources of greenhouse gas emissions?

• Using renewable energy

• Planting more trees

• Eating vegetables

• Burning of fossil fuels, industrial processes, and deforestation

What are the potential solutions to mitigate the effects of climate change on biodiversity?

• Increase use of fossil fuels

• Ignore conservation efforts

• Expand deforestation

• Research and implementation of renewable energy sources, conservation of natural habitats, reduction of deforestation, and sustainable land use practices

How do renewable energy solutions contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions?

• By releasing toxic chemicals into the atmosphere

• By not producing greenhouse gas emissions during electricity generation

• By contributing to deforestation and increasing carbon dioxide levels

• By increasing greenhouse gas emissions during electricity generation

What are the primary causes of global temperature rise?

• Volcanic eruptions, solar flares, and ocean currents

• Greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and industrialization

How can individuals contribute to reducing ocean acidification?

• By using more plastic and chemicals in everyday products

• By reducing carbon emissions and supporting policies that protect marine ecosystems

• By increasing carbon emissions and ignoring policies that protect marine ecosystems

• By overfishing and polluting the oceans
