No, the answer is C. If it was A and the air cools, then why are deserts hot? The answer is C because as air rises it heats up and lose a its moisture through evaporation, leaving hot dry air for the deserts. This is called the rain shadow effect, where one side of the mountain is moist and cool and the other side is a desert.

would you consider that the current activities of man today have an impact on the future of the Earth?​Explain your answer
sergey [27]
Yes, things such as polluting the air with fossil fuels (not natural) and things like building factories or something as simple as throwing garbage in the oceans have a major affect. everything is like a butterfly effect, one small action can have a drastic outcome. people now a days are inventing numerous amounts of things and damaging our ecosystems. as the years go on and things like this keep happening, our world will start to get hit with those outcomes. right now we are experiencing them, with hot temperatures and less fish in the ocean and polar ice caps melting.
