Temperature shifts can trend toward warming or cooling, based on a number of gravitational, seasonal, and human variables. These variables affect different ecosystems differently and thus should produce a random pattern in which some ecosystems warm while others cool. However, data gathered in a 1980s study shows that the shifts occur in a definitely skewed pattern, with most areas’ temperatures rising simultaneously.
Which of the following, if true, forms the best basis for at least a partial explanation for the patterned changes recorded in the study?
A Massive warming can result from widespread pollution in many countries.
B Certain regions with specific geographical features respond in varying degrees to surrounding changes.
C Some regions grow warmer due to increased volcanic activity in those regions.
D In the 1990s and beyond, which were not as well documented, human pollution skewed the trend toward warming.
E Regions that are geographically closest are most likely to be affected in similar ways.

a number of gravitational, seasonal, and human variables effects the temperature. We need a partial explanation of simultaneous temperature increase.
A Massive warming can result from widespread pollution in many countries. Many countries but not all. Not partially explain
B Certain regions with specific geographical features respond in varying degrees to surrounding changes. Not having any necessary variable.
C Some regions grow warmer due to increased volcanic activity in those regions. Not having any necessary variable.
D In the 1990s and beyond, which were not as well documented, human pollution skewed the trend toward warming. Not having any necessary variable.
E Regions that are geographically closest are most likely to be affected in similar ways. This looks correct for partial explanation.
