How do earth's spheres interact to cause weather/climate?

miss Akunina [59]

The atmosphere transfers heat energy and moisture across the Earth. Incoming solar radiation (insolation) is redistributed from areas in which there is a surplus of heat (the equator) to areas where there is a heat deficit (the North and South Pole). This is achieved through a series of atmospheric cells: the Hadley cell, the Ferrel cell and the Polar cell (Figure 2). These operate in a similar way to, and indeed interact with, the ocean conveyor.

For example, as the oceans at low latitudes are heated, water evaporates and is transported poleward as water vapour. This warm air eventually cools and subsides. Changes in temperature and CO2 concentrations can lead to: changes in the size of atmospheric cells (in particular, the Hadley cell is susceptible to these alterations); warming in the troposphere; and disproportionately strong warming in Arctic regions. The strong interactions between ocean and atmospheric dynamics, and the significant feedback mechanisms between them, mean that climate researchers must consider these Earth components as interlinked systems. The necessity to assess ocean-atmospheric changes at the global scale has implications for the way in which research is conducted. It is only by integrating palaeo evidence of past changes, with present day monitoring, and projected models,

Tyrahn’s rods do not transform light into nerve impulses as easily and efficiently as they should, so he has difficulty seeing i

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

This is called Night blindness.

Explanation:

It is also known as nyctalopia and is a vision impairment. this happens when the rods in the eyes do not transform light into the nerve impulses efficiently and easily than normal. As a result you will be having hard time seeing in dark places where there is only minimal light.

This is can be caused by cataracts, nearsightedness, usher syndrome or deficiency of vitamin A. These can be cured by certain procedures. To prevent developing this eye problem, it is important to take care of your eyes. you should monitor sugar levels and eat the right foods. foods that are abundant in vitamin A and other antioxidants would in preventing it.

Explanation:

Amylase is a digestive enzyme secreted and is responsible for breaking down <u>starch.</u>

Digestion describes the intake, chemical and physical breakdown, absorption of nutrients and excretion of food. Alpha amylase, an enzyme produced in the pancreas, is found in human saliva; it catalyzes the breakdown of starch into glucose

Further Explanation:

Food is chemically and mechanically broken down into into smaller particles. This begins in the mouth, where food is mechanically crushed by the teeth, and mixed with saliva to allow water based enzymes like lingual lipase and amylase to work;- it's then transported to the stomach via the esophagus.

Alpha amylase, an enzyme produced in the pancreas, is also found in human saliva; it catalyzes the hydrolysis, or breakdown of starch into glucose in the stomach as gastric amylase. Amylase acts on polysaccharides bonds at random points along the chain by splitting the α 1-4 glycosidic bonds.
