Answer:

Radiation and advection

Explanation:

  • Conduction: It happens when particles of matter are in direct contact, the adjacent atoms of higher energy vibrate against each other transferring energy from high to low temperature. Fluids and gases are less conductive than solids because their atoms have a greater distance. An example is the heat transferred between the electric burner of a stove and the bottom of a pan.
  • Convection: Is a heat transference between a surface and a liquid or gas in motion, as the fluid/gas travels faster the transferred heat increases. An example of this transfer takes place in a forced-air furnace and weather systems.
  • Advection: is similar to convection but the transfer of heat is lateral or horizontal. In the atmosphere this kind of transfer is common.
  • Radiation: is the transfer through empty space, it occurs without an intervening medium when microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light or another electromagnetic radiation is emitted or absorbed. An example is the sun warming the Earth.

Advection and radiation are the primary forms of heat transfer. Convection only happens in the troposphere because horizontal heat transfer (advection) is significantly bigger. The same happens with conduction that only transfers heat in the lower layers of the atmosphere, Sun's radiation, on the other hand, gets absorbed in all the atmosphere.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Which regions put policies in place to expand their populations?
aliina [53]

Answer:

The regions that have negative demographic trends and the ones where religion has big political power are the ones where there are policies for expansion of the population.

Explanation:

When it comes to population policies, the world can be divided into two groups, one being the one that has policies to stop the population growth and the other that has policies to expand its population. Generally speaking, the Western countries and the Muslim countries are the ones that promote the expansion of their populations, though the reasons are different.

The Western countries face very low birthrates and aging populations, so they have such policies in order to experience a decline of their populations and to have enough labor force for their economies. The Muslim countries, on the other hand, are countries where the religious authorities have big political power, and as it has always been the case in such situations, there is policies in place for expansion of the population so that the religion has more power through more followers, and maybe even expand by attacking other countries in the future.
