6 0

Answer: conduction occurs right near Earth's surface. ... During the day, sunlight heats the ground, which in turn heats the air directly above it via conduction. Convection drives the circulation of air in the earth's atmosphere. The sun heats the air near the earth's equator, which becomes less dense and rises upward. As it rises, it cools and becomes less dense than the air around it, spreading out and descending toward the equator again.
