Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: The continuous motion of air and water distributes the sun’s energy. Explanation: The continuous motion air and water helps to distribute the sun’s energy throughout the earth, and thus maintain fairly constant average temperatures.
Detailed explanation-2: -What is the best explanation for these constant average temperatures? The continuous motion of air and water distributes the sun’s energy.
Detailed explanation-3: -Earth’s land areas, oceans, and atmosphere maintain fairly constant average temperatures. What is the best explanation for these constant average temperatures? Earth’s Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere have opposite seasons. The continuous motion of air and water distributes the sun’s energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Essentially 100% of the energy that fuels the earth comes from the sun. To maintain a constant global average temperature, all of the sun’s radiation that enters Earth’s atmosphere must eventually be sent back to space. This is achieved through Earth’s energy balance.
Detailed explanation-5: -The convection currents are created by the magnetic field of the Earth’s core and either attract or repel the tectonic plates.
