Answer:

B. The tropospheric gases move becuase of convection currents.

Explanation:

The uneven heating of the regions of the troposphere by the sun ( the sun warms the air at the equator more than the air at the poles )causes convection currents, large-scale patterns of winds that move heat and moisture around the globe. In the Northern and Southern hemispheres, air rises along the equator and subpolar ( latitude about 50 to about 70 north and south ) climatic regions and sinks in the polar and subtropical regions. Air is deflected by the Earth's rotation as it moves between the poles and equator, creating belts of surface winds moving from east to west ( easterly winds ) in tropical and polar regions, the winds moving from west to east ( westerly winds ) in the middle latitudes. This global circulation is disrupted by the circular wind patterns of migrating high and low air pressure areas, plus locally abrupt changes in wind speed and direction known as turbulence.

The balance or lack of balance between accumulation and wastage is called ________. group of answer choices glacial trough glaci
Roman55 [17]

Glacial balance is the balance or imbalance between accumulation at the top of the glacier and loss or disposal at the bottom.

Glaciers (US: /ˈɡleɪʃər/; UK: /ˈɡlæsiər, ˈɡleɪsiər/) are thick masses of ice that are constantly moving under their own weight. Glaciers form where snow cover has outpaced erosion for years, sometimes centuries.

As it flows slowly and deforms under its own weight, it takes on features such as cracks and shellac.

As they move, they erode rocks and debris from their roots, forming features such as cirques, moraines, and fjords. Glaciers can flow into bodies of water, but they form only on land, unlike the much thinner sea and lake ice that forms on the surface of bodies of water.
