Which of the following statements is true?
Low pressure is usually means nice weather.
Air pressure is the same over the entire earth.
Worldwide winds are caused by rising air at the poles and sinking air at the equator.
Coastal breezes occur because water heats and cools more slowly than land.
PLEASE AT LEAST TRY PLEASE?
Answer:
1- Option (b)
2- Option (b)
3- Option (a)
4- Option (c)
5- Option (a), (b) and (d)
6- Option (d)
Explanation:
The equatorial region receives more sunlight than the polar region, so the places near equator are warmer than the places at the polar region, including the 80 degrees N latitude.
Seasons are caused due to the tiltation of the earth and the relative position of earth with respect to the sun.
Due to the increasing temperature near the earth's surface, the warm air rises up in the atmosphere, being less denser and eventually sinks due to the lowering temperature.
When there occurs the temperature difference between two different regions, then wind is generated blowing from the region of higher pressure to the region of low pressure.
Clouds are formed when condensation process takes place and are a good albedo that reflects significant amount of sunlight back into the space. Clouds during condensation starts precipitating in the form of rainfall, snowfall and fog.
The difference in the temperature occurs because of the unequal heating of the land surface and the ocean. The land area gets heated up faster and more readily, in comparison to the ocean. So the sea breeze as well as the land breeze occurs. Sea breeze blows from the ocean surface to the land area, whereas land breeze blows from the land area towards the oceans.
oxygen in the air is at a dangerous level
the amount of pollutants in the air is unhealthy
acid rain is likely to fall
Answer:
the amount of pollutants in the air is unhealthy
Explanation:
AQI or Air Quality Index assesses the air quality. It indicates how clean or unhealthy the air is and its effects. It is calculated by measuring the concentration of major air pollutants across many locations in the country. The air quality is divided into six categories:
An AQI of 201 means that the air quality is very unhealthy. Everyone is susceptible to health hazards in this air quality.
Answer: The role of an organism in the ecosystem is called its NICHE.
Explanation: The niche (pronounced 'neesh') of an organism is the specific function and purpose of the organism within its environment, ecosystem or food-web or food-chain.
