What impact does the coriolis effect have on the direction the air travels?

Biology

Fed [463]3 years ago

Answer:

The effect of coriolis causes winds to blow diagonally from west to east in the northern and southern hemispheres, above and below the subtropical elevations, respectively. It also causes the northern hemisphere winds to curl to the right while in the southern hemisphere, the deflection is to the left. Both effects result in the movement of the west winds to the poles.

Explanation:

The Coriolis Effect or Coriolis Force is a system of reference in uniform rotation, in which the bodies in movement, when seen by an observer in the same referential, appear subject to a force perpendicular to the direction of its movement.

The Coriolis Force is exemplified and serves as the basis for various effects taking place on Earth. This force influences the movement of air masses, deviates the trajectory of long range projectiles, and causes changes in the plane of motion of a pendulum.

The Coriolis Effect can be seen in action in the general circulation of the atmosphere. The winds at all latitudes to the north of 0° deflect to the right of their intended path in the Northern Hemisphere. The Coriolis Effect does not impact the wind speed, only the wind direction.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

A. If the aerobic pathway—cellular respiration—cannot meet the energy demand, then the anaerobic pathway—lactic acid fermentation—starts up, resulting in lactic acid buildup and "oxygen debt."

D. The rate of energy demand determines how the muscles will obtain energy, either from cellular respiration or from lactic acid fermentation if not enough oxygen is present.

Explanation:

It is important to consider that Kenny hikes all day but at a steady pace, whereas Janelle runs very fast. So Kenny's case, the supply of oxygen is sufficient to maintain aerobic respiration within the muscle cells. During this process only CO2, Water, and ATP are produced; therefore, there is no oxygen debt. We should keep in mind that the body shifts to anaerobic metabolism only when the supply of oxygen is limited.

In Janelle's case, running fast would need energy at higher rates and the supply of oxygen would not be sufficient to generate a high amount of ATPs. Therefore, to compensate for this deficiency, cells will start fermenting glucose to lactic acid and produce ATP and maintain energy demands. This lactic acid causes fatigue and this is why Janelle has aching and breathing hard. Breathing hard is also automatic reflux to inhale more oxygen and meet oxygen demands but even breathing hard would not be able to make it and the body will shift to anaerobic respiration automatically.
