All the following are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

All  are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :

d. Warm air is less dense than cool air so it tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface.

Explanation:

  • When gases heat up, their volume increases and  density decrease.
  • A decrease in density causes a substance to become lighter.
  • Thus, when air warms up due to heat from the sun its density decreases and it gets lighter.
  • So, it will move up.
  • The Cooler air in turn is denser and heavier so it will sink towards the Earth's surface.
  • Hence, the statement d , which states that 'warm air is less dense than cool air so in tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface' is FALSE.

Letting the leaves of the plant deprived from light for 48 hours will be forced to use its reserved starch making the storage of the starch decrease.
