The Sun is the primary source of energy that drives all the biogeochemical cycles on Earth. Which statement best describes how t

he Sun’s energy powers the water cycle?
1.Plants require energy from the Sun to perform photosynthesis.

2.The Sun's heat reflects off ice sheets near the polar caps, reducing the overall temperature of Earth.

3.Heat from the Sun drives evaporation, turning water on Earth's surface into water vapor.

4.Energy from the Sun provides the warmth necessary for cold-blooded animals to survive.

Answer:

3. Heat from the Sun drives evaporation, turning water on Earth's surface into water vapor.

Explanation:

Water cycle starts with evaporation of water from water bodies which includes transition of water into water vapor by heat of sunlight. The water vapor rises up in the sky and gets condensed to form clouds. This is followed by precipitation and collection of water into the water bodies again through surface run off. Hence, the very first step of water cycle, that is, evaporation is driven by energy from Sun.

The structural commonality of the biceps brachii and the rectus abdominis is that they are __________.
Strike441 [17]

The structural commonality of the biceps brachii and the rectus abdominis is that they are parallel muscles whose fibers run along through the long axis of the body.

Together with the pyramidalis muscle, the rectus abdominis is a member of the anterior abdominal muscles. However, when considering the functional architecture, these two muscles, together with the three lateral abdominal muscles—the external oblique, internal oblique, and transversus abdominis make up the anterolateral abdominal wall.

The biceps brachii muscle, also known as the "biceps," is a big, thick arm muscle with two heads. The supraglenoid tubercle, located above the glenoid cavity of the scapula, is the location of the long head. It is extra synovial while being in the intracapsular area.

At the humeral head, the long biceps tendon curves sharply before continuing on in the bicipital groove (intertubercular sulcus). Ligaments in the capsular region (also known as the biceps pulley) hold this pivotal point in place.

Short head: Arises at the coracoid process of the scapula, where it partially fuses with the coracobrachialis origin tendon.

HELP??? How is convection in the mantle different from convection in the ocean?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Ocean currents result from two processes - the action of wind on the surface of the water, and from variation in water temperature that causes movement- a process known as convection.Mantle convection is the slow creeping motion of Earth's solid silicate mantle caused by convection currents carrying heat from the interior to the planet's surface. ... This subducted material sinks through the Earth's interior.
