Hello!

A hero can be defined as a person who puts their life on the line to save others. In The Odyssey, Ulysses takes some of his men into the cave where they later find is occupied by a one-eyed cyclops. After a confrontation in which two of his men are killed Ulysses makes a plan to kill Polyphemus. This shows his heroic characteristics. He needed to save his people. They end up shoving a hot log through his eye, and escape, after getting the cyclops drunk. As they are exiting the cave, Ulysses goes last. This shows that he put himself after all of his men to ensure their safety.

What scientific principle explains why air is moving upward in the tropics - an area of warmer
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Convection current

Explanation:

Convection currents occur when a heated fluid expands, becoming less dense, and rises. The fluid then cools and contracts, becoming more dense, and sinks

Hot air rises because when you heat air (or any other gas for that matter), it expands. When the air expands, it becomes less dense than the air around it. The less dense hot air then floats in the more dense cold air, the cold air due to its greater density moves downward, and the cycle continues, this upward and downward movement is called convection current.
