The Coriolis effect is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion within a frame of reference that rotates with respect to its inertial frame. Any reference frame with clockwise rotation, the force acts to the left of the motion of that object; and vice versa.
Since the the earth rotates on a 23° axis, circulating air is deflected towards the right in the northern hemisphere and towards the left in the southern hemisphere.
Because the air is moving in a curved path creating circular spin patterns as the air travels from areas of high pressure to low pressure.
And so that’s why hurricanes in the north rotate counterclockwise, and tropical cyclones in the south rotate clockwise.
I hope that helps.

Hello!
In order for an animal to be a vertebrate, it must have a backbone. As can clearly be seen in any image of a sponge, it is a highly asymmetrical simple animal and does not have a backbone. Therefore, a breadcrumb sponge is not a vertebrate, or is an invertebrate.

I would sort them into the categories of metamorphic rock, sedimentary rock, and igneous rock.
Igneous rocks are made from the cooling and solidifying of lava or magma. Pumice is one of these rocks, it's made from lava being thrown out of volcano, and rapidly cooling. Obsidian and granite the other igneous rocks in the list.
Sedimentary rocks are made from the sedimentation of smaller particles. Coquina limestone is one of these - it's made from the sedimentation of the shells of dead animals.
Metamorphic rocks are rocks which are created by extreme heat and pressure. Essentially, they used to be a different kind of rock, and now they're metamorphic rocks. Gneiss and soapstone are both metamorphic rocks.
So here are your final answers:
Igneous: Granite, Obsidian, Pumice
Sedimentary: Coquina limestone
Metamorphic: Gneiss, Soapstone
Hope this helped!
