Latitude plays a major role in determining the climate, or long-term weather patterns, of an area. Because of differences in the

intensity of solar energy, climates in higher latitudes are generally colder than climates in lower latitudes. What causes some areas of Earth to receive less intense solar energy than others?

Answer: B. the curve of earth

Explanation:

The curve of the Earth is tilted as it rotates around the sun. This means that one side will receive more direct sunlight than the other side some parts of the year.

The intensity of solar energy received is directly proportional to the amount of sunlight received so the side receiving more sunlight will receive more solar energy.

This is the same reason Earth has different seasons.

What forces hold network solids together?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.

Which phrase best describes the salinity of ocean water?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Number of grams of mineral salt in one liter of water

.

Explanation:

Salinity :

It is the concentration of dissolved salts .

Salinity means the saltiness or the dissolved salt component in the water body . It is defined as mass (in gram) of the dissolved matter in the water bodies .

salts found in ocean water are :

Salts of chlorides, sulfates , sodium , magnesium, potassium  and calcium

For example :  world's oceans salinity is 3.5% parts per thousand (g/L) . It means 3.5 g of salt is present in 1 L of seawater .

Note : Sodium chloride is major salt found in ocean . But it is not the only salt present (other salts are also found) . So D can't be the answer
