Why does people say heat rises when it only rises at a point

Geography

Hot air rises because gases expand as they heat up. When air heats up and expands, its density also decreases. The warmer, less dense air effectively floats on top of the colder, denser air below it. This creates a buoyant force that causes the warmer air to rise.

Hope this helps! :)

Weather is affected by the amount of oxygen or water in the air
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Dissolved Oxygen and Water. Although water molecules contain an oxygen atom, this oxygen is not what is needed by aquatic organisms living in natural waters. A small amount of oxygen, up to about ten molecules of oxygen per million of water, is actually dissolved in water. Oxygen enters a stream mainly from the atmosphere .

Explanation:

I want to investigate how temperature affect the concentration of oxygen in air as it will affect how much oxygen we inhale per breathe. Oxygen by percent composition in air is 20.95%. However, the oxygen concentration/density in air varies due to the expansion of gas particles and varies inversely wth temperature according to P/RT=n/V.
