The Coriolis effect makes storms swirl clockwise in the southern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere.  Because earth rotates on its axis circulating air is deflected towards the right in the northern hemisphere and towards the left in the southern hemisphere this effect called Coriolis effect.

Hurriances spin counterclockwise because the Coriolis effect. The equator rotates faster than other area of earth's surface and moving in a straight line on north to south axis will curve.

In southern hemisphere currents are deflected to the left. Storm system seem to rotate clockwise. This force is caused by the earth rotation and responsible for air being.

sertanlavr [38]
As the individual body size of an organism increases, the population density for this organism in a given habitat tends to decrease.

  <span>It has been shown that an inverse relationship between the size of an animal and its local abundance exist. Animals with larger body size have higher energetic requirements, resource exploitation, and susceptibility to predation and thus the competition is bigger. Yet, the density–body size relation depends on the physical complexity of the habitat and population of a species.</span>

Answer No 1:

A concentration gradient can be described as a phenomenon by which molecules travels from an area which is highly concentrated to an area which has low concentrations of that molecule.

Answer No 2:

A molecule is said to be diffusing down a concentration gradient when molecule acquire the phenomenon of concentration gradient i.e move from higher concentration to lower concentration. This mechanism is also termed as passive transport. Active transport is the opposite of passive transport. In active transport, molecules move against the concentration gradient i.e from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration.

A confederation ( or confederacy) is a weak association of states, rather than a firm union
likoan [24]

The confederation has succeeded in establishing a new country. However, the residents of each state still tended to think of themselves as citizens of their particular state rather than as Americans. Under the Articles, many of the states continued to have only limited contact with each other. This made it difficult for them to agree on the common interests and goals for the government.
