When incoming energy from the sun is absorbed, Earth warms. When energy is released from Earth into space, the planet cools. Many factors, both natural and human, can cause changes in Earth’s energy balance, including changes in greenhouse gasses; variations in the sun’s energy reaching Earth; and changes in the reflectivity of Earth’s atmosphere and surface.

These patterns evolve through natural selection. There are different life strategies that species may exhibit. A species may reproduce early in life to ensure surviving to a reproductive age or reproduce later in life to become larger and healthier. A species may reproduce once (semelparity) or many times (iteroparity) in its life.
