Solar energy does not warm Earth's surface evenly. For example, during the day, land areas warm up faster than nearby bodies of

water. How does this uneven warming affect the movement of air over land and water?

Explanation:

The uneven warming of the earth surface causes land and sea breeze over the land and water.

Water has a very high specific capacity and it takes more heat to cause a fractional increase in its temperature. During day, the air around water is cold and dense and under high pressure.

The land adjacent to the water, is a better conduct with a low specific heat capacity. When warming of the earth starts by the sun, the air on land heated by heat radiated from the surface. Air on land is warm, less dense and light.

This forces the air on land to move seaward and the cold air from the sea to move land ward and a sea breeze is set up.

At night the reverse is the case. The land loses heat very fast and the air around it is cold and dense. The water body does not lose heat so fast and the air around is warm and lighter. Air from the land replaces that on the surface of water and a land breeze is set up

Brine shrimp live in salt water, but the level of salt in the water where they reside can differ dramatically from day to day or
Naily [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "excretes; hypotonic; absorbs, hypertonic".

Explanation:

Cell's homeostasis is only conserved in an isotonic solution, since cells that are in an hypertonic solution (high salt concentration) tend to loss water, and in hypotonic solution (low salt concentration) tend to absorb water. Brine shrimp lives in waters that are both, hypertonic and hypotonic and has adapted to overcome this issue by excreting and absorbing salt across its gills. In very high salt concentrations, a brine shrimp "excretes" salt across its gills and maintains an internal salt concentration that is "hypotonic" relative to the water where it lives. In lower salt concentrations, a brine shrimp "absorbs" salt water across its gills and maintains an internal salt concentration that is "hypertonic" relative to the water where it lives.

How do naturalist explain order,design and function in the biosphere
erik [133]

Naturalists represent the idea that only natural laws (physical laws) are the rules that govern the structure and behavior of the natural universe. This means that everything can be explained in terms of natural causes. Naturalism is the belief that all that exists material matter, that there is no such thing as soul and that individuals have no purpose in life.
