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

When you are hyperventilating, you are really taking in too much oxygen and the balance between O and CO2 is disrupted. By breathing in a paper bag, this can reverse respiratory alkalosis by allowing you to take back in your own carbon dioxide. Thus bringing down your elevated blood pH.

Where would you be most likely to find the oldest rocks on Earth?
alekssr [168]

At the outer edges of ocean crust

Explanation:

The rocks found in continents are older and in some cases the oldest. The younger rocks are found in mid ridge of ocean. The oldest rocks can be found in ocean trenches that are very deep.

At the outer edges of ocean crust, oldest rocks can’t be found as relatively newer ones are formed continually and mostly found. So, different regions have different ages of rocks and needs to be explored properly.

How does the spread of an airborne pathogen compare to the spread of foodborne and person to person pathogens?
bulgar [2K]
An airborne pathogen would be much more dangerous than that of a foodborne and person to person. Why? Because there is a higher risk of contracting it. With person to person, you could avoid infected people all-together, but with airborne, it's more complex than that. Obviously, the molecular make-up is different as-well, but this is in regard to which pathogens you are talking about.
