Answer:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

Explanation:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

In near the equator we experience 12 hours of daylight as the equator is situated exactly the halfway in between the two poles. The North pole experiences  long daylight in the months, when the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun and shorter daylight when the pole tilted away from the Sun. The reverse is true for the Southern Poles. But this wouldn't have any effects in daylight on the equator.

Water near the equator is warmer than water at the poles. Which sentence explains why?
shusha [124]

Hi there!

You will have already be known that the <em>sun's rays are closest to the equatorial regions</em> <em>than</em> the <em>polar regions</em>. So the stronger heat rays reach the equator first, heating it's water faster. Within the span of time when the rays reach the polar areas (poles), the sun rays become slanted, leading it into the ocean waters.

Also, the sharpness or intensity of the rays gets weakened, thereby heating the water of polar regions less.

Using this fact, we can say that the rays falling near the equator heats the water more than the rays heating the water at poles.

Hence, we can say that <u>D) </u><u>T</u><u>he sun heats earth and it ocean unevenly</u> will be your answer.

Thank you !
