Which factor explains why a mountain located near the equator can be covered with snow?
Aliun [14]
<span>b. higher elevation</span><span>


The climate on the leeward side of a mountain differs from that on the windward side mostly in the amount of rainfall. So the correct option is option "d" in regards to the question that has been given. The climatic condition of the windward side of the mountain is always like an ocean climatic condition while the leeward side has a very dry climate. The air on the windward side rises and gets cold and thus forms precipitation. On the other hand the air comes down on the leeward side and becomes warm and results in a drier climatic condition. </span>

1) How does wind typically move according to pressure?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: 1. Ok so wind  moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas. And the bigger the difference between the pressures, the faster the air will move from the high to the low pressure. And so basicly thats the wind we experience. 2. Winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises in the atmosphere where they meet. Swirling in the opposite direction from a low pressure system, the winds of a high pressure system rotate clockwise north of the equator and counterclockwise south of the equator. 3. these names of these name come from their origin; the westerlies run west to east while other winds run east to west. 4. Because Earth rotates as the air is moving, the winds in the Northern Hemisphere curve to the right and air in the Southern Hemisphere curves to the left. 5. its caused by the north. 6. Land and sea breezes are referred to as direct thermal circulations. During the day the land, which has a low specific heat and is a poor conductor, heats much more quickly than water.
