Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The masses of air move from the areas of high pressure to the areas of low pressure. Pruitt's city must be situated more or less within the equator for it to be dominated by maritime tropical air mass. This area gets adequate sunlight all throughout the year because of the comparative position of the Sun.  

Therefore, its atmosphere is usually more heated in comparison to that of the Polar Regions. The air in the tropic regions turns less dense and elevates into the upper atmosphere. The cooler and denser maritime polar air mass from the poles moves in to substitute the elevating air in the tropics, thus, developing incoming cooler winds.  

This is the reason for the creation of the trade winds across the globe and distributing energy around the planet to a more or less homeostatic level.

Meteoroids is piece of solar rock before it strikes the earth surface. Meteorites are rocks that strikes the surface of the earth from space.

  • In earth science, meteorite impacts are often attributed with mass extinctions on the earth surface.
  • For a meteorite to reach the earth surface, it must has a very large diameter.
  • This big rocky mass must be able to escape the earth geomagnetic field and the ionizing radiation in the upper reaches of the earth atmosphere.
  • Meteoroids of smaller sizes cannot escape the earth's atmosphere and would completely ionized and melted.

Explain the factors that contribute to the success of class insecta. ​
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

It is believed that insects are so successful because they have a protective shell or exoskeleton, they are small, and they can fly. Their small size and ability to fly permits escape from enemies and dispersal to new environments. ... In addition, insects can produce large numbers of offspring relatively quickly.
