Answer:

It takes much longer to heat and cool the oceans than the continents.

Explanation:

The Southern Hemisphere and Northern Hemisphere, despite being equal in size and receiving the same amount of sunlight, have big differences in climate. This is the case because the Northern Hemisphere has much more landmass, while the Southern Hemisphere has much more ocean water.

The land is changing temperature much faster because it can heat and cool off very quickly, thus the temperature variations are very large, not just from season to season, but also between day and night. The water, on the other hand, is heating up and cooling off much slower, so its temperature is never oscillating a lot. This results in much smaller temperature swings, so the climate tends to be much milder than the climate in the Northern Hemisphere.

Which factor has led to the increasing influence of oil-rich Middle Eastern countries over other nations?
monitta

Answer:

The dependence comes from the fact that the highest consumers of oil are not the highest producers.

Explanation:

The Middle East, as a region, has been blessed with reserves of oil. This is the natural resource for which there is the highest demand on the global market, so having it means that it brings a lot of benefits. The most obvious benefit is a lot of profit, but there is also the political influence because of the dependence of other countries on the resource.

The huge amount of profit complemented with having all major economies in the world (except two) highly dependent on oil from the Middle Eastern countries has led to a lot of looking through fingers situations. Almost all of the countries in this region tend to be among the worst when it comes to the violation of human rights, suppression, dictatorship, but all other countries turn their heads and there is no reaction because of how dependent they are on their oil. Also, the leaders of these countries are spreading out their influence in other countries by buying a lot of businesses, buying actions, sports clubs, or even finance political parties in order to make a stronghold, and so far they do it to great effect.
