How do ocean currents influence the climate of a place?

Biology

sveticcg [70]4 years ago

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The correct option is A: They transport heat over long distances affecting the wind that blows over the land.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Ocean currents carry cool or warm water or currents over long distances thereby affecting the wind that blows over the place bringing about a change in the climate.
  • When the ocean currents carry cool air, the warm wind gets displaced by the cool air and therefore the climate of the place becomes cold.
  • When the ocean currents carry warm air or water, the climate of the place becomes warmer.
  • By transporting hot or cold currents, the ocean currents affect the climatic conditions of land and so bring about a change of weather.

ASAP PLS There are lots of big words in genetics! One way to start thinking about the process of meiosis is to ask yourself some
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

1) the genes and chromosomes do not double after each generations because parental sex cells are haploid and only contain one set of chromosomes. During fertilization the two cells fuse to form a diploid zygote with two copies of genes and chromosomes. For example a normal human has 46 chromosomes (2 copies of 23 chromosomes) during reproduction gametes which contain 23 chromosomes (haploid) fuse to form an offspring with the correct number of chromosomes ( 23 + 23 = 46).

2) offspring only receive one set of chromosomes from each parent so to maintain the chromosome number of humans. If this did not happen you would not be the same species.

Which statement is true about the law of reflection?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The law of reflection defines that upon reflection from a smooth surface, the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of the incident ray, with respect to the normal to the surface that is to a line perpendicular to the surface at the point of contact.

The reflected ray is always in the plane defined by the incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of contact of the incident ray.

The images produced by plane mirrors and curved mirrors can be understood by the law of reflection.

Law of reflection is defined as:

The principle when the light rays falls on the smooth surface, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence, also the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface all lie in the same plane.

What is Reflection of Light?

The process through which light rays fall on the surface and gets bounced back is known as a reflection of light.
