The Earth's magnetic field lines appear to emanate perpendicularly from the poles and go round along the Earth from the  South Pole to the North Pole. Therefore, the Earth's magnetic field is generally not parallel to the ground at every location. It is parallel to the earth at the equator near the earth's surface.

The Earth's magnetic field, also known as the geomagnetic field, is a magnetic field that extends from the Earth's interior into space, where it interacts with the solar wind, a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun.

The magnetic field  varies in strength over the earth's surface. It is strongest at the poles and weakest at the equator.

Which of the following is a major way in which oceans contribute to weather systems?
mylen [45]

Since, the options are not given the question is incomplete the complete question is as follows.:

Which of the following is a major way in which oceans contribute to weather systems?

provide a diverse habitat for many organisms

experience changes in amounts of dissolved salts

store and transport the Sun's heat energy

reach depths that can be as much as 12000 meters

Answer: Store and transport the Sun's heat energy.

Explanation:

Oceanic currents are just like a conveyor belt. It helps in transportation of the warm water and the precipitation from the equator to the poles and the cold water in the poles towards the tropics. This way the oceans counteract the uneven distribution of the radiation of sun that reaches upto the surface earth. This will regulate the global climate.

As the core collapses, the outer layers of the star are expelled. A planetary nebula is formed by the outer layers. The core remains as a white dwarf and eventually cools to become a black dwarf. ... Like low-mass stars, high-mass stars are born in nebulae and evolve and live in the Main Sequence

hydrogen shell burning - outer layers swell. Red Giant Branch - helium ash core compresses - increased hydrogen shell burning. First Dredge Up - expanding atmosphere cools star - stirs carbon, nitrogen and oxygen upward - star heats up.

What does basketballs have inside of it
FrozenT [24]
Hi there!

Great question!

Basketballs have air inside them. A special pump is used to insert the air. That's why you can lift the basketballs off the ground easily. If it was a solid, though, you'd hardly be able to lift the ball up! Basketballs can float, too, because anything with air inside can float. If it were solid, it would sink in the water easily.

Hope this helps! :D
