Answer: 1- Latitude, Ocean water current, topography and vegetation
2- fossil fuel burning and pollution
Explanation: The factors that influences earth's climate are as follows-
- Latitude- Latitude plays n important factor in controlling the climate. The areas near the equator and the tropics are the region which receives maximum sunlight, as a result of which there is high surface temperature and the area experiences maximum rainfall.
- Ocean water current- The ocean water carries the warm water from the equator to the poles and he cold water from the poles back to the equator, thereby maintaining the earth's climate.
- Topography- Due to the presence of hills, valleys and other landforms, the hot air when rises up to the atmosphere moves in the direction of wind and when strikes a mountain, it precipitates.
- Vegetation- Plants and trees during photosynthesis process releases water vapor that are added to the atmosphere, which subsequently condenses and rainfall occurs.
Some of the anthropogenic activities that affects the climate are as follows-
- Burning up of fossil fuels releases a huge amount of carbon into the atmosphere.
- degradation of water quality and pollution has been increasing very rapidly affecting the climate.
