-
A.
Cenozoic glaciations
Cenozoic glaciations are a series of major ice age cycles during the Cenozoic Era that saw extensive growth and retreat of continental ice sheets, profoundly shaping Earth’s climate and landscapes.
-
B.
Milankovitch cycles
Milankovitch cycles are long-term variations in Earth’s orbit and axial tilt that drive natural climate fluctuations, including the timing of ice ages.
-
C.
Eocene–Oligocene climate transition
The Eocene–Oligocene climate transition was a major global cooling event around 34 million years ago that marked the shift from a greenhouse to an icehouse Earth, including the formation of large Antarctic ice sheets.
-
D.
Pleistocene glaciation
chosen
Pleistocene glaciation refers to the series of extensive ice ages during the Pleistocene Epoch, when large ice sheets repeatedly advanced and retreated over vast areas of the Northern Hemisphere, dramatically reshaping landscapes and climates.
-
E.
Snowball Earth glaciations
Snowball Earth glaciations were extreme global-scale ice ages in the Precambrian when ice sheets may have covered most or all of Earth’s surface for millions of years.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
