Afforestation Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Level of response mark schemes are broken down into levels, each of which has a descriptor. The descriptor for the level shows the typical performance for the level. There are marks in each level. Before you apply the mark scheme to a student’s answer read through the answer and annotate it (as instructed) to show the qualities that are being looked for. You can then apply the mark scheme. The notes for answers provide indicative content. Students’ responses may take a different ap...

Global warming is a long-term increase in the earth's average temperature due to human activities, primarily the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The culprits are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and fluorinated gases. These gases absorb heat and cause the warming phenomenon known as the greenhouse effect. Reason: Burning Fossil Fuels: Burning coal, oil and natural gas for energy is a significant source of carbon dioxide emissions. Deforestation: T...

Qu Part Marking guidance Total marks 01 1 Outline the relationship between the water cycle and the carbon cycle in the atmosphere. Point marked Allow 1 mark per valid point with extra mark(s) for developed points (d). For example: Notes for answers • Increasing concentrations of carbon (and Methane) in the atmosphere has a warming effect on the planet and leads to increased evaporation (1). This can increase rates of precipitation or equally higher rates of evaporation can further e...

Do you know the difference between adaptation and mitigation? This so often comes up in the exams, and so often students get stuck on the difference and end up losing lots of marks. If you can smash this then you have a head up on your peers!
