Answer:

b. increased temperatures

Explanation:

  • The primary reason for the productivity in the Photo zones is due to the influence of major factors like the Nutrients, light, and grazing of animals. The rate at which the plants are eaten by herbivorous.
  • Upwelling of cool, water from the bottom and interaction of warm waters from the above that derives nutrient-rich water to the surface. These upwelling can be consciously be caused by the winds and the depth of light penetrates down the layer of the water.
  • As the intensity of water decrease with depth and with the concentration of nutrient the photic zone becomes shallower.

Why are hurricanes so frequent in areas close to the equator? A. There is more wind near the equator. B. There is less landmass
levacccp [35]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

Hurricanes so frequent in areas close to the equator because "the ocean water can evaporate more quickly near equator".

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Hurricanes are fast moving wind storms that use heat and most air as their fuel. The air near the 'equator' is warm and moist causing more hurricanes.
  • The warm and moist air from the 'ocean surface' rises above and generates an "area of low pressure".
  • This causes air from nearby areas to move to the area of low pressure. This new air becomes moist and warm. This warm air when cools forms clouds.
  • This cloud systems and winds grows and spins fed by the "water evaporating" from the surface of the ocean. This in turn creates a storm called a hurricane.
