细胞进行各种活动。呼吸作用不仅是个体生存的
the last 270 years of the holocene ushered into the - (ANSWERS)INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION when
基础,也是生态系统能量流动的重要环节。
climate pollution began to increase dramatically
呼吸作用的基本原理
呼吸作用是一种代谢过程,其核心是分解有机物
the industrial revolution was powered by - (ANSWERS)fossil fuels
(如葡萄糖)并释放能量。这一过程可分为三个
主要阶段:糖酵解、柠檬酸循环和电子传递链。
what began after world war II? - (ANSWERS)the great acceleration (1950-present)
在糖酵解阶段,葡萄糖被分解为丙酮酸,释放少
-caused depletion in the ozone layer
量能量;在柠檬酸循环中,丙酮酸被进一步分解
-After 1950, the biodiversity of species started decreasing and the extinction of species accelerated

有氧呼吸与无氧呼吸
-The climate has already warmed by 1°C since 1900.
-If humans continue with business-as-usual consumption of fossil fuels, the warming between 1900
and 2100 could exceed 4°C.
the greenhouse effect. - (ANSWERS)It is this trapping of heat energy that otherwise would have
escaped to space through the atmosphere
-allows solar radiation to enter
-the blanket effect
is the greenhouse effect real? - (ANSWERS)-Satellites routinely measure the incoming solar energy
and the outgoing heat energy from the planet
-Independently, the heat energy emitted by the surface has been estimated using observed surface
temperatures on land and sea.
aerosols - (ANSWERS)-Visible smoke and smog are made up of tiny particles
, -carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases cannot be seen by the human eye
-Most of these aerosols reflect sunlight and have a cooling effect
black carbon aerosols (a major component of soot) - (ANSWERS)-absorb solar radiation entering the
atmosphere and have a warming effect.
呼吸作用是生物体维持生命的重要生理过程。通
-warms the climate by absorbing solar energy rather than infrared energy from the planet
过呼吸作用,生物体将有机物转化为能量,以供
super pollutants - (ANSWERS)-non-carbon dioxide细胞进行各种活动。呼吸作用不仅是个体生存的
greenhouse gases and black carbon particles
基础,也是生态系统能量流动的重要环节。
-per molecule, their warming effects are much larger than that of carbon dioxide.
呼吸作用的基本原理
The Northern Hemisphere has warmed more than呼吸作用是一种代谢过程,其核心是分解有机物
the Southern Hemisphere, largely because -
(ANSWERS)the ocean's influence

At current emission growth levels—that is, under a在糖酵解阶段,葡萄糖被分解为丙酮酸,释放少
"business as usual" scenario - (ANSWERS)-
another trillion tons of carbon dioxide will be added to the atmosphere by about 2030

Earth is now experiencing the Anthropocene Era - (ANSWERS)-which means a time when
environmental change is driven by human activity
-One result of the Anthropocene Era is the increase in the greenhouse effect, which might be better
termed the "atmospheric blanket."
vidence that human activity is the primary cause of global warming includes - (ANSWERS)physical
and satellite observations and the confirmation of the predictions of scientific models.
How are satellites and weather balloons used with climate change model data? - (ANSWERS)to
confirm predictions
Why is global cooperation necessary to reduce the effects of increased carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere? - (ANSWERS)Gases travel quickly through the atmosphere to all parts of the globe.
