Hi there!

You will have already be known that the <em>sun's rays are closest to the equatorial regions</em> <em>than</em> the <em>polar regions</em>. So the stronger heat rays reach the equator first, heating it's water faster. Within the span of time when the rays reach the polar areas (poles), the sun rays become slanted, leading it into the ocean waters.

Also, the sharpness or intensity of the rays gets weakened, thereby heating the water of polar regions less.

Using this fact, we can say that the rays falling near the equator heats the water more than the rays heating the water at poles.

Hence, we can say that <u>D) </u><u>T</u><u>he sun heats earth and it ocean unevenly</u> will be your answer.

Thank you !

What is the island in the atlantic off the northwestern coast of mainland europe?
RUDIKE [14]
<h2>Answer: British Isles </h2>

The British Isles are an archipelago (Great Britain and Ireland, and other smaller islands) located at the northwest of the coast of Europe. They are separated from the European continent by the North Sea to the east and by the English Channel to the south, while to the west and north they border the Atlantic Ocean.

However this was not always in this way. Millions of years ago this portion of land was a peninsula linked by a limestone mountainous ridge to mainland Europe. This is how, where the current Dover Strait is located, there was a rock formation that joint Great Britain and France.

It is estimated that it was at the end of the last Ice Age (this whole area was frozen and the sea level was far much lower than today) that this territory began to separate from the continent, a process that ended in the Mesolithic period, in the middle of the Stone Age, becoming the insular territory we know today.

In fact, the current Irish Sea and the North Sea were dry land that was submerged with the rise of sea level in the thaw.
