1 answer:

3 0

A solstice is a point during the Earth's orbit around the sun while during an equinox, the sun is at its nearest point from the Equator. Another difference is that a solstice takes place on June 21 and December 22, while an equinox takes place on March 20 and September 22. One more difference is that during the summer solstice, the days are longer and in winter solstice, the nights are longer. For an equinox, the duration of day and night are both equal.

Hope it helps :)

Answer:

C Differences among temperature, air pressure, and density

Explanation:

Classification of the atmosphere layer will be different based on the temperature, air pressure, and density. Generally, air pressure and density will go less at the higher layer, but the temperature varies greatly. Altitude and latitude define a location on earth, not the layer of atmosphere. Most weather just happens at the troposphere layer. The distance from ground level can be used as a rough estimate but not as precise criteria.
