Answer 1

Answer:

• Due to greater solar radiation and high surface temperature, the air becomes more buoyant.
• a. ecology

Explanation:

• At the equator, the Sun's direct rays are concentrated over it causing the region of equator to heat up . On getting heated , the air mass expand and become less denser , then rises up . Therefore , greater the solar radiation and high surface temperature, the air becomes more buoyant .

• Ecology is defined as how the organisms of an area are affected by the factors such as the temperature , predators , climate , soil, predators, competition and evolutionary history. Ecology deals with the relation of organisms with each other and the abiotic components of the environment.
