<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.

So, the answer would be 
<span>through the greenhouse effect
And could also be </span><span>through the movement of winds and currents</span>

Which map is the best to show one continent? Explain.
Zolol [24]

Answer: B

Explanation: The reason for this is that a conic projection is good for lay out of a globe but for acurate viewings it’s the worst and the Mercator projection although is the most common projection it strechs the size of things for example you could say Greenland is around the size of africa but in reality it’s 14 times smaller Therefore the Equal-area projection is the best.
