ICE AGES The history of those phenomena By: Maria and Rita

What is the Ice Age? The Ice Age, is a period of the reduction in the temperature of the Earth’s surface and atmosphere consenquently (resulting) in the expansion of the continental ice-sheets

The consequences of the Ice Age The animals and vegetables disappear mostly because they couldn’t stand the cold. The animals that survive in extreme cold environments are mainly marine, some birds and other animals with much hair.

What happened? The last major glacial age on Earth happened around 60 million years ago. When the Earth’s temperaure has suffered a huge change. Because of this, there was not enough heat during the summer, to melt the ice that is usually formed at high altitudes during the winter.

What the benefice of these fact? We don’t know of any benefits caused by the ice age.
