The reason why the large-scale convection currents occur in the atmosphere is because  Earth's rotation causes air at the equator to move much faster than air at the poles.

<h3>What is convection?</h3>

This can be defined to mean the circular motion that air is made  to pass through.

This causes warmer air with faster molecules to be dense as the cooler air gets to the atmosphere.

Which is an example of oil as a strategic commodity?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

D. Kuwait trades oil for technology with the United States

Explanation:

This is the best answer since oil is a very useful commodity other countries will trade other resources like technology for it.

C. is incorrect because this isn't using oil as a strategic commodity. this is just using force to get what they want.

A. is incorrect because it clearly doesn't mention trading oil.

B. is incorrect because it's not using oil strategically. Trading oil for other resources that we need is strategic.

So that leaves D which is correct.

(have a great day!)
