At the equator, the sun is directly overhead at noon on these two equinoxes. the nearly equal hours of day and night is due to the refraction of sunlight or bending of lights Ray's that causes the sun to appear above the horizon when the actual position of sun is below the horizon.

On equinox, the sun moves across the celestial equator, which lies directly above the Earth's equator. When the sun crosses the plane, it rises exactly in the east and sets exactly in the west.

Bottom line: There's slightly more day than night on the day of an equinox. That's because the sun is a disk, not a point of light, and because Earth's atmosphere refracts (bends) sunlight.

When farmers in Central America do NOT use pesticides on bananas, it generally results in taller banana trees and larger bananas
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The farmers in Central America have been using pesticides extensively in the past several decades. While everyone would prefer that the bananas, as well as the other fruits, be all natural, organic, it is simply not practical and that type of production will result in deficit of the product on the market. The reason why the pesticides are used so much is so that the tree is not attacked by diseases and pests and the bananas to get destroyed.

The usage of pesticides actually contributes to the tree growing taller and being healthier, as the diseases and pests are mostly eliminated. The bananas themselves are too larger and in higher quantity, so the demand on the market is largely satisfied.
