Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are
B Melting of glaciers
C Severe heat waves

A high concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere causes the heating of the Earth due to the greenhouse effect. This warming up of the Earth is called global warming.

Melting of glaciers, rising sea levels, heat waves, forest fires, and the disruption of various plants and animal habitats leading to their extinction - these are some effects of global warming.
