A) evenly distributing solar radiation.

The oceans do not evenly distribute solar radiation on earth. Actually solar radiation on earth is never evenly distributed due to the spherical shape of the globe and titled nature of earth on its axis. However, oceans attempt to disturbed the solar energy from solar radiation around the earth through ocean currents. Nonetheless evenness is never achieved, and ideally cannot be reached as long as earth remains dynamic.

Explanation:

Usually the equatorial region is heated faster and warmer than higher latitudes. The ocean waters in the equatorial regions are, therefore, warmer and these currents head towards the poles (on ocean surface waters) as cooler oceans currents from the poles replace these waters at the equator (upweling from deeper denser waters in the ocean). This ensures the distribution of solar energy around the world. In addition, water evaporating from ocean surface carry with them energy that is transferred to the atmosphere. The atmosphere, on other hand, distribute this energy through wind currents.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Fungi indirectly help the fishes by providing digested organic nutrients to their prey insects.

Explanation:

According to the given information, fishes are predators of insects. These insects feed on dead leaves. The insects are not able to digest the cellulose of dead leaves. Fungi breakdown the dead and decaying leaves and digest the complex molecules such as cellulose into simpler organic nutrients which in turn are consumed by insects.

If fungi do not decompose the dead leaves, insects would not be able to derive the organic nutrients from them. A shortage of food supply to insects would starve them. Unavailability of prey insects would starve fishes. Thereby, fungi indirectly benefit the fishes to obtain their nutrition from the insect.
