The correct answer is (a) Solar Energy

The difference in temperature between the equator and pole of the earth results in formation of wind patterns. The difference in absorption of solar energy leads to buoyancy forces which results in rotation of earth. This rotation of earth causes the wind flow. Hence, the solar energy causes wind to flow which ultimately serves as a source of mechanical energy in wind.

How can a calendar year help us to understand the magnitude of geologic time
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The civil year allows us to have an idea of how long our planet has existed.

Explanation:

Calendar year is the 12-month period that corresponds to 365 days of the year, counting from 1 January to 31 December. Geological time, in turn, refers to the didactic organization of the evolution of planet Earth and the forms of life that inhabit or inhabited it. It is an instrument used by Earth's geologists and scientists to analyze and chronologically categorize (through the concept of a civil year) the natural evolution of the world in which we live, in order to better understand its past.

The civil year allows geological time to expose the number of years and days that planet Earth (and its forms of life) are in existence.

Apple flowers produce seeds inside ovaries, which mature into fruits. Apple trees belong to which of the following?
Tpy6a [65]
<span>The answer is b. Angiosperms. Bryophytes are seedless plants. Gymnosperms and Angiosperms have seeds. The difference between these two groups is in the seed position. If seeds are inside ovaries, a plant belongs to Angiosperms. If seeds are outside ovaries, on the scales for example, a plant belongs to Gymnosperms. Since apple flowers produce seeds inside ovaries, it belongs to Angiosperms.</span>
