Answer:

Trade wind

Explanation:

Wind is a concept that has its etymological root in the Latin language: ventus. It is the air flow that is generated in the atmosphere for reasons of nature.

According to its characteristics, it is possible to classify the winds in a different way. Trade winds are those that blow between the tropics. These winds start from high-pressure subtropical areas towards low-pressure equatorial regions: by the rotation of the planet, trade winds are diverted westward by the Coriolis effect.

Deserts in regions of trade winds

They are usually located on the western edges of continents near the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. A coastal desert is that of Atacama in Chile, which is the driest desert on Earth.

They are areas with an annual rainfall of 100 to 200 mm and an average temperature of the warmest month below 10ºC. The largest of these polar deserts is for example Nival, it is located in the interior areas of Antarctica.

Monsoon (word derived from Arabic that means weather station) refers to a system of seasonal winds. Monsoons develop as a result of temperature variations between continents and oceans.

scoray [572]

Answer:

$\boxed{\bold{Lake}}$

Explanation:

A Lake Is -Not- A Biome

Biomes: Temperate Deciduous Forest, Coniferous Forest, Woodland, Chaparral, Tundra, Grassland, Desert, Tropical Savanna

A lake is not a biome. A lake can be found in a biome, but a lake is not itself a biome. A biome is a community of plants and animals that have common characteristics for the environment they exist in. Yes, similar species can be found living in a lake, but a lake can be found in a particular biome where there are lots more of the same species.

How does the hypothalamus monitor water in the body?

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

Hypothalamus is a part of the brain which controls many important functions of the body by producing hormones.

When the amount of water gets reduced in the blood, it leads to a change in the osmolarity which can be easily detected by the osmorecpetors present in the neurons of the hypothalamus.

In response, neurons secrete Anti-diuretic hormone in the blood which acts in the tubules of the kidney where they help in re-absorption of the water from the body.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
