A. Marine West Coast Climate - sunny, mild
Marine West Coast Climate is also called Oceanic. It is characterized with relatively narrow annual temperature range and features a warm (but not hot) summers and cool (but not. cold) winters.
B. Tropical wet and dry - <span>Heavy downpours of rain
</span><span>All twelve months in the tropical climate regions have mean temperatures of at least 18 °C.</span>
<span>C. Moderate Mediterranean - mild and rainy
</span>This climate<span> is known for warm to hot, dry summers and mild to cool, wet winters. </span><span>
D. Tundra - cold
</span>Tundra is the climate with largest average precipitation per season (4.5 inches.) The type of precipitation that falls in this climate<span> is mostly snow in the winter, and in the summer it is rain, with occasional snow. </span>
The world’s ocean is crucial to heating the planet. While land areas and the atmosphere absorb some sunlight, the majority of the sun’s radiation is absorbed by the ocean. Particularly in the tropical waters around the equator, the ocean acts a as massive, heat-retaining solar panel. Earth’s atmosphere also plays a part in this process, helping to retain heat that would otherwise quickly radiate into space after sunset.
The ocean doesn't just store solar radiation; it also helps to distribute heat around the globe. When water molecules are heated, they exchange freely with the air in a process called evaporation. Ocean water is constantly evaporating, increasing the temperature and humidity of the surrounding air to form rain and storms that are then carried by trade winds, often vast distances. In fact, almost all rain that falls on land starts off in the ocean. The tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption, and thus ocean evaporation, is highest in this area. Outside of Earth’s equatorial areas, weather patterns are driven largely by ocean currents. Currents are movements of ocean water in a continuous flow, created largely by surface winds but also partly by temperature and salinity gradients, Earth’s rotation, and tides (the gravitational effects of the sun and moon). Major current systems typically flow clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere, in circular patterns that often trace the coastlines. Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth’s surface. Without currents, regional temperatures would be more extreme—super hot at the equator and frigid toward the poles—and much less of Earth’s land would be habitable.

Answers:
- A line in which two plates move in opposite directions from another is known as a divergent plate boundary.
- A line in which one oceanic plate subducts underneath another oceanic plate is called an ocean-ocean convergent plate boundary.
-A line in which two plates slide horizontally past each other is called a transform-fault boundary.
-A line in which an oceanic plate subducts underneath a continental plate is an ocean-continent convergence.
-A line at which a continental collision occurs is known as the continent-continent convergence boundary.
