Weight of air
Depending on elevation, the air pressure
varies. This is because of the weight of the air that is exerting pressure on
earth. At higher elevation, there is less layer of air that is exerting pressure
so the atmospheric pressure is also less. At lower altitudes or at sea level,
more layer of air is exerting pressure so the atmospheric pressure is also
more. The sun’s energy has nothing to do with air pressure. The energy that the
Earth gets from the sun is more or less constant. The same with density of
nitrogen, and the earth’s magnetic field, they have nothing to do with air
pressure.
<em>They are exothermic as they take temperature from the surrounding and then maintain their internal body temperature according to the amount of heat absorbed :)</em>
One is able to intelligently debate issues.
Answer:
Menisci are the semi-lunar fibrous cartilage of the knee which could be either medial meniscus or radial meniscus. The meniscus in humans is present in the joints of the knee, sternoclavicular joints, wrist and temporomandibular joints.
These menisci play important roles in these joints as they reduce the friction caused by the bones during movement. They also disperse the weight of the body of the humans as they spread the load of the weight of the body to different bones like the femur and tibia.
