Answer:

C. The combination of Earth's rotation and its revolution causes the

atmosphere to be unequally heated by the sun.

Explanation:

The Earth is on an axis so the northern and southern hemispheres are at different angles. I am in the US so right now we are just getting out of summer and into fall. The axis is slightly tilted away from the sun so we are getting less of the direct rays therefore heat from the sun. However, later in the year we will get lower temperatures and the days get shorter. In summer the northern hemisphere (where I am) will be tilted directly to the sun so we will get more heat but in the winter we will be tilted farther back getting colder temperatures.

Which was more significant to Gilded

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The answer is: the power of big businesses.

Explanation:

The Gilded Age (late 19th century) was an "age of transformation," a change in America's economy, social customs and government. The growth of the country's economy was rapid and cities expanded. Because of technological advancements such as the telephone, typewriter and the light bulb, the industrial sector became more productive. This attracted many businessmen who were eager to gain more profit, which resulted into a situation of monopoly.

These businessmen could gain an easy access to the Senate, who were responsible for implementing the nation's laws. They were favored by the Senate by giving them a favorable tariff and a businessman-friendly policy. Thus, it made the monopolists even stronger. This shows how the big businesses played a role in terms of politics and industrialization.

This is the reason why the power of the big businesses was more significant to the Gilded Age.

What does it mean if a child is egocentric?

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:
Egocentric thinking is the normal tendency for a young child to see everything that happens as it relates to him- or herself. This is NOT selfishness. Young children are unable to understand different points of view. Hope this helps! :)
