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.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

One distinguishing characteristicof all three clades i.e Deuterostomia, Lophototrochozoa, or Ecydysozoa are  balstopore development, internal body cavity and exoskeleton respectively

Explanation:

Apart from molecular difference, there exist structural differences between the three clades, which are as follows –  

Deuterostomia – The development of embryo is different from the protostomes as the first opening in this clade is anus and the blastopores develops into the anus.

Lophototrochozoa – They do not have ant distinguished internal body cavity. Organs with in coelom can move freely. For example - flatworm

Ecydysozoa – have the ability to shed their tough and flexible exoskeleton i.e cuticle , several times throughout their life span
