<span>Thermal energy is transferred from hot places to cold places by convection. Convection occurs when warmer areas of a liquid or gas rise to cooler areas in the liquid or gas. Cooler liquid or gas then takes the place of the warmer areas which have risen higher. This results in a continous circulation pattern. Water boiling in a pan is a good example of these convection currents. Another good example of convection is in the atmosphere. The earth's surface is warmed by the sun, the warm air rises and cool air moves in.

</span><span>Convection is the movement of heat through gases or liquids. Heat from the sun heats the air which can account for A and D, but a lot of the Earth's heat is distributed by the ocean. Water has a high specific heat which can absorb a lot of heat in one place, and distribute it in a colder place evening out the Earth's temperatures a bit.
</span>
So, the answer would be 
<span>through the greenhouse effect
And could also be </span><span>through the movement of winds and currents</span>

Warm air is _____ dense than cold air, and warm air holds _____ moisture than cold air. more; more less; less more; less less; m
Butoxors [25]
Less;less

warm air is less dense as you can see in the case of air just above fire. air becomes warm and moves upward..

warm air holds less moisture as in winters you can see mist die to the vapours present in cold air.
in summers there is less moisture when air is warm..
it is so because hot air has more energy n water vapours spread out...

Suggest possible reasons for these country current development status.
Alex Ar [27]
The countries in the Middle East are oil rich, so they are profiting offf oil. China and Malaysia are rich because they make clothing and other needs and ship them over here. Bangladesh profits off making clothing like weavings, but has lost lots of money in previous years due to flooding.

You plant 30 African violet seeds and 9 of them sprout. Use experimental probability to predict how many will sprout if you plan
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

6 seeds will grow

Explanation:

An easy way to simplify is like this

9/30 -> Find a common factor (3)

9 sprout per 30 planted

Divide both sides by GCF(3)

3/10

3 sprout per 10 planted

x/20 = 3/10

How do you change that 10 into a 20?

Multiply by 2 = 6/20

So, 6 seeds sprout per 20 planted
