Question

Which describes the relationship between the concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide (blue line) and average global temperatures (red line) over time? (1 point) Responses Carbon dioxide increased significantly after the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840, but global temperatures remained constant. Carbon dioxide increased significantly after the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840, but global temperatures remained constant. Carbon dioxide increased significantly prior to the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840, but global temperatures remained constant. Carbon dioxide increased significantly prior to the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840, but global temperatures remained constant. Both carbon dioxide and global temperatures increased significantly prior to the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840. Both carbon dioxide and global temperatures increased significantly prior to the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840. Both carbon dioxide and global temperatures begin to increase significantly after the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840.

Answer 1

The correct response would be: **Both carbon dioxide and global temperatures begin to increase significantly after the Industrial Revolution that ended in 1840.**

This reflects the observed trend that after the Industrial Revolution, human activities contributed to an increase in carbon dioxide levels, which is associated with a corresponding rise in average global temperatures.
