Which best explains mantel convection

Biology
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

The heat given off by Earth's core is circulated through mantle convection.

Explanation:

Heating materials usually causes them to <em>expand</em>; as they become hotter, they also become less dense. Convection describes the transfer of heat from hot areas of liquids and gases to cooler ones. This causes the heated, less dense material to rise and more dense material to fall, as it’s pulled by gravity. Super-heated metal forming Earth’s central core heats rock in the mantle; the hot and cool rock slowly rise and sink- this circulation process is called mantle convection.

Westerlies blow at a curve between 10 and 60 degrees north and south of the equator. What prevents these winds from blowing in a
julia-pushkina [17]

The correct answer is option A, that is, the Earth is spinning on its axis.  

The westerlies refer to the prevailing winds that blow from the west to the east in the mid-latitudes, that is, in between 10 and 60 degrees. The wind blows from the regions of higher pressure to the region of lower pressure, but it does not blow in a straight line.  

This is generally because the Earth is rotating on its axis. The spin of the Earth makes winds to bend towards the right in the northern hemisphere and towards the left in the southern hemisphere. This is known as the Coriolis effect.
