So there's actually two answers to this question.  The Gulf Stream is part of the reason why Britain is warmer, since it carries so much warm water, but the difference between a maritime and a continental climate is more important. At the latitudes of Canada and Britain, the prevailing winds are coming from the west. If you're in the east, the prevailing winds are gonna have to travel all the way across the ocean, which will lead to it being warmer in the winter, and colder in the summer.  If you've got thousands of miles of continent out to windward, your climate will be more extreme. If you're going across the entire ocean, it's gonna be more mild, and predictable. Continents just get hotter and colder than oceans, and this affects the temperature of the atmosphere passing over them.

olasank [31]

The correct answer is - unequally distributed.

The water on the planet is not distributed equally. Be it the salt water or the fresh water, there's big differences from place to place.

The salt water for example, is much more abundant on the Southern Hemisphere, while it is much less found on the Northern Hemisphere.

The freshwater though, has much bigger differences on much smaller spaces. While places like the northern half of South America or most of Europe are abundant with water, there's places do not have it at all, like the Arabian Peninsula. The Arabian Peninsula actually doesn't have a single stream or river that have a constant flow, while on the other hand, you have a very small country like Macedonia that has over 2,000 streams and rivers on just above 25,000 km².

  • Other planets like the mars and Venus are likely that of the earth but have a certain amount of variation in their atmospheric composition and characteristics and thus they have different cycles.
  • Thus like the variation of the sunlight in the earth equator and the poles, due to the more bulges to the equator areas and less of above.
  • Similar is the variation in the gases and the density of the mass of the planets and other four-planet are gas giants and have there own atmosphere surrounded in thick layers.

If this is a true or false question, the answer is false. United States do share land borders with Mexico as well as Canada along with Russia, Bahamas and Cuba. United States then is north of Canada and south of Mexico. Hope this is the answer.
