Why is solar energy not distributed evenly over earth? Give at least THREE factors/reasons why.

Biology
1 answer:
Arisa [49]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  • The earth is round, meaning the part of it that is closer to the sun, will get more solar energy than the other parts which will get less. (Don't believe me? Just try placing a circle on a flat line, and see if you can get it to evenly touch.)
  • The earth is constantly rotating on it's axis, and since its axis is slightly tilted, the two poles will get different amounts of solar energy at different times. While one pole will be closer the other will be farther away, until the earth rotates of course.
  • The earth doesn't revolve around the Sun evenly, meaning instead of a perfectly even circle with equal space around the sun, it's more of an elliptical shape, or basically an oval. So this would mean the earth would be slightly further away from the sun as it completes its orbit.

I'm not an expert, nor am I absolutely sure if this is right, but I hope my answer helps.

P.S. Sorry if it's wrong

Which process releases energy instead of using energy?
ryzh [129]

The correct answer is option (D) A sandwich is digested and converted to carbon dioxide and water.

Digestion is a catabolic process of breakdown of complex food substances into simpler nutrients releasing energy. In the process of digestion of a sandwich, the carbohydrates are broken down into simpler sugars in presence of enzymes releasing water, carbon dioxide and energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This ATP is the reserved energy currency and also used for the growth, repair and replacement of cells.

Lipophilic hormones function by activating cAMP.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Water soluble hormones associate with the G protein of cAMP. This G protein is intra-cellular i.e found inside the cell.  

However in case of lipid derived hormones, the hormone has to diffuse through the cell across the plasma membrane to bind to DNA or the intra-cellular receptors.This regulates the gene transcription and induces protein production that affects the cell functioning for a long time.

Hence, option B is correct

How does bacteria cause disease?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Bacteria cause disease by secreting or excreting toxins (as in botulism), by producing toxins internally, which are released when the bacteria disintegrate (as in typhoid), or by inducing sensitivity to their antigenic properties (as in tuberculosis).
