Question

question 5. when comparing the role of the ocean in climate change with forests, what similarity can be drawn? a. both are unaffected by climate change b. both generate electricity c. both cause air pollution d. both absorb carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Oceans act as carbon - sinks through processes like gas exchange and biological carbon pump. Forests absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. They are both important in regulating the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as both are affected by climate change, neither generates electricity in the context of this comparison, and they do not cause air pollution in a relevant way here.

Answer:

D. Both absorb carbon dioxide
