Which statement best explains the relationship between an area's geography and the temperature of its surface water?A.) Areas at low latitudes have the warmest water because they have the least change in temperature throughout the year.

B.) Areas at low latitudes have the warmest water because they receive the most direct sunlight.

C.) Areas at high latitudes have the warmest water because they have the longest seasons.

D.) Areas at high latitudes have the warmest water because their days are the longest.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Areas at low latitudes have the warmest water because they have the least change in temperature throughout the year. Therefore, option A is correct about the relationship between a geographical area and surface water temperature.

What is temperature change with altitudes ?

Ocean temperatures typically range from -2o to 30o C. (28-86o F). Surface water in low latitude regions tends to be the warmest, whereas surface water at the poles is obviously much colder  It is worth noting that water on the eastern side of the ocean basins is colder than water on the western side at equivalent latitudes.

 

Despite the fact that surface water can be quite warm, the majority of the water in the oceans is deeper, colder water, so the average temperature of the entire ocean is around 4° C, which is roughly the temperature inside your refrigerator.

Therefore, the lower altitudes is having warmest water than that at higher altitudes.

What changes igneous or sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is Temperature (Heat), Pressure and chemical activity of fluids.

Explanation:

Metamorphic rocks result from the transformation of pre-existing rocks that have undergone structural and mineralogical changes under certain physical or chemical conditions such as temperature, pressure or chemical activity of the fluids. This type of modification is known as a process called metamorphism, in which igneous rocks or sedimentary rocks, when subjected to high temperatures, pressures or active fluids, cause changes in their composition, bringing new substances to them.

Because they wanted more territory than what they already had.

Answer:

Answer:  To get revenge for recent French losses in North America.

Explanation:

The Seven Years War was fought in Europe from 1756-63.  That conflict as it extended to colonial territories in the New World was known as the French and Indian War.  Losing that conflict in North America to the British didn’t sit well with France. And so when the colonial Americans broke out in revolution against the British monarchy, France devoted enormous financial aid (as well as officer support) to the Americans. The cost to France for supporting America’s revolution added up to 1 billion livers  (about 4 billion in today’s dollars). This is part of what put France’s debt problem over the edge and led to the French Revolution.

Amy is at basketball practice. She is about to shoot a free throw. When she releases the ball the ball will not have kinetic energy but will have potential energy. the ball will have kinetic energy but will not have potential energy. the ball will have kinetic energy and potential energy. the ball will have neither kinetic energy nor potential energy.

Answers

The ball will have kinetic energy because the released the potential and kinetic is taking over.

Answer:

The ball will have kinetic energy and potential energy

Explanation:

When Amy releases the ball, it will be moving. Therefore, it will have kinetic energy. But, because the ball will be in the air, it will also have gravitational potential energy. I also did the Study Island
