Which is one source that scientists use to reconstruct past climate conditions?

Answer
A
fossils frozen in glaciers
B
daily temperatures
C
the tilt of Earth’s axis
D
running water

Explanation

Scientists reconstruct past climates using physical evidence called climate proxies. Fossils preserved in glaciers can provide clues about the organisms and conditions that existed when the ice formed. Daily temperatures are direct measurements of current or recent weather, not a record of ancient climate.
