Answer: Tempeture, air pressure, centripetal acceleration and Earth rotation.

<u>Temperature: </u>Warm air and cold air have different density. As warm air is less dense than cold air, it rides up and over the cold air causing winds.  

<u>Air Pressure: </u>At the Earth's surface, wind blows horizontally from high pressure to low pressure areas. Wind is faster in bigger pressure differences.  

<u>Centripetal Acceleration:</u> air speed is influenced by centripital acceleration this way, the direction of wind in the center of the circulation is also influenced. Cyclones, for example, are a association of centripital acceleration and air pressure differences.

<u>Earth's Rotation:</u> Wind direction chance can be caused by the rotation of Earth on its axis. The Coriolis effect, easterlies are examples of the influence of the earth’s rotation on Wind.

What is the difference between a fracture zone and transform fault? A transform fault is a crack, but a fracture zone is a hole
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

A "transform fault" is a fault line where two tectonic plates slide against each-other. Not all faults are transform faults.  Some plates separate and allow magma to seep up and like a scab, creating new ground (these are called divergent faults.)  Other faults, such as convergentfaults, occur when two plates smush into each-other and one is forced below the other where it heats up and is eventually destroyed. And the fracture zone is thus the junction between oceanic crustal regions of different ages.
