Question: How is wind speed and direction related to air temperature?

1. Think about it Imagine a pocket of air over the land ("land air"), and another pocket of air

over the ocean ("ocean air").

A Which air pocket would you expect to heat up more during the day?

Why?

B

Which air pocket would you expect to cool down more at night

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The wind  moves from regions of lower air temperature to regions of higher air temperature because of a pressure differential set up by the two air masses

Explanation:

Relationship between wind speed and direction to air temperature:

wind flows from regions of lower air temperature to regions of higher air temperature because of a pressure differential set up by the two air masses.

A.  The land air will heat up more during the day. This is because the land has a lower specific heat capacity than water, hence increases a lot more rapidly in temperature than the sea when the sun comes up.

B.  The air packet over the land will cool down more rapidly at night due to the lower specific heat capacity of land when compared to the sea.

how does dog and flea interact each other ?

Answers

Answer:

A dog attaches to the dog's fur and sucks on its blood

Dogs often get infested with fleas through contact with other animals or contact with fleas in the environment. The strong back legs of this insect enable it to jump from host to host or from the surrounding environment onto the host. (Fleas do not have wings, so they cannot fly.)

The common grackle is a species of robin-sized blackbirds that are fairly common over most of the
United States. Suppose that long tails (L) were dominant to short tails (1) in these birds. A female short-
tailed grackle mates with a male long-tailed grackle that had one parent with a long tail and one parent
with a short tail. What is the tail length probability of their offspring?

Answers

Answer:

Long tail (Ll) = 1/2 or 50%

Short tail (ll) = 1/2 or 50%

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for tail length in grackle birds. The allele for long tails (L) were dominant to short tails (l) in these birds. This means that a bird that is heterozygous (Ll) for the gene will be phenotypically long tailed.

According to the question, a female short-tailed grackle (ll) mates with a male long-tailed grackle that had one parent with a long tail and one parent with a short tail. This male grackle will have a genotype: Ll because of his parental genotype. Hence, crossing ll × Ll, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:

Ll (male) = L and l

ll (female) = l and l

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:

Ll, Ll, ll and ll

2 Ll out of 4 are long-tailed i.e 1/2 or 50% probability

2 ll out of 4 are short-tailed i.e 1/2 or 50% probability

b. cooler than usual waters in the tropical Pacific
c. warm waters traveling eastward toward South America
d. cool waters causing colder than normal temperatures in the Southeast Incorrect

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

I think so

1. Coriolis effect would deflect the path of the air mass to the west.

2. A horizon would provide the best assessment of the fertility of a soil.

3. Label E is located above Label D.

4. A La Niña can be described as cooler than usual waters in the tropical Pacific

The correct options for 1, 2, 3 and 4  are B, B, D and B respectively.

The Coriolis effect is the deflection of moving air (or an object) due to the Earth's rotation. The air moving in the northern hemisphere is deflected to the right of its intended path due to the Coriolis effect. As a result, in the Northern Hemisphere, air masses traveling from high to low latitudes will be deflected west.

The A horizon, commonly known as the topsoil, contains the most organic matter and nutrients, making it the most fertile layer of soil. This is the layer in which organic components such as degraded plant matter and humus interact with mineral particles to provide an optimal environment for plant growth.

The location at latitude D, which lies above the equator and parallel to the top of the Hadley cell, is where you might expect to find the driest average conditions in the Hadley cell circulation pattern mentioned in the question (north of the equator). Due to the compression, the air in the Hadley cell becomes warm and dry as it descends, resulting in arid or desert-like conditions.

La Niña is a climate phenomenon that causes cooling of sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. It represents the inversion phase of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle.

Therefore, the correct options for 1, 2, 3 and 4  are B, B, D and B respectively.
