From the given options, choose the one that completes the para in the most appropriate way._____ Ice – in the form of sea ice, glaciers, ice caps and snow ice, – reflects some of the sun’s heat, cooling the planet. In contrast, the dark surfaces of the open sea and snow-free ground absorb heat. As ice disappears, the earth retains more of the sun’s heat and as the earth warms up more ice melts, through this feed-back process, declining ice strengthens global warming.Ice holds large fresh water supplies and is a vital part of the ecosystem.Melting ice is the cause of prime concern today.The impacts of melting ice will reach far beyond the Arctic, affecting global climate and biodiversity.Ice plays a critical role in shaping our planet’s environment.
