What role do the winds and the oceans play in heat transfer around Earth?

1 answer:

<span>wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator. The ocean can store much more heat than the land surfaces on the Earth. The majority of the thermal energy at the Earth’s surface is stored in the ocean. Thus, the absorption and movement of energy on the Earth is related to the ocean-atmosphere system.

El Nino and La Nina- La Nina is known for its unusually cold temperatures in the Equatoral Pacific. E</span><span>l Niño, is characterized by unusually warm ocean temperatures in the same region

Explanation:

We know that the larger the circle, the more large the diameter of the circle the more the quantity being studied.

We can clearly see that the South eastern coast of Australia has more number of people diagnosed with cancer.

The South western and the Northern part also records a sizable amount of skin cancer cases.

In the middle part of the map where the circles are small, the number of people diagnosed with cancer is very low
Other areas without the circle did not record any case of skin cancer.

Alenkinab [10]

The one advantage of using DNS assay to detect maltose production is the formation of a soluble and colored product compound.
The reaction that occurs between maltose and DNS in the assay is a redox reaction (reduction and oxidation) such that maltose gets oxidized and becomes Maltonic Acid while the DNS gets reduced into reduced DNS. The intensity of orange/brown /red color of reduced DNS is proportionately related to the amount of Maltose in the solution.

Ronch [10]

Answer:

The heart has an intrinsic conduction system that causes electrical activity in the heart muscles causing them to contract. The intrinsic conduction system is made up specialized cells, that contain nerve and muscular characteristics.
The muscle cells in the heart are linked together by gap junctions, allowing cardiac action potentials to travel from one muscle cell to another.
Atrioventricular (AV) node. The damage to the AV node causes the electrical signals traveling from the upper chambers to the lower chambers to be impaired causing an AV block.
