Question

how is weather influenced by wind and water?
select all that apply
the sun causes winds by heating the earth unevenly through the tilt of the earth.
all of the planets in our solar system affect the wind and water currents on earth through gravitational force.
the sun heats the earth unevenly by the rotation of earth on its axis.
winds are created by differences in temperature and air pressure. warm air rises, cool air sinks.
evaporation happens in different amounts all over the planet and this affects the amount of water in the air which then lee

Explanation:

• The sun causes winds by heating the earth unevenly through the tilt of the earth. This uneven heating creates pressure differences which drive wind.
• The sun heats the earth unevenly by the rotation of earth on its axis. Rotation also contributes to uneven heating and thus wind patterns.
• Winds are created by differences in temperature and air pressure. Warm air rises, cool air sinks. This is a fundamental principle of wind formation.
• Evaporation happens in different amounts all over the planet and this affects the amount of water in the air which then leads to weather phenomena like precipitation.

The statement "All of the planets in our solar system affect the wind and water currents on earth through gravitational force" is incorrect. While the moon (a satellite, not a planet) has a significant gravitational effect (e.g., on tides), other planets' gravitational influence on Earth's wind and water currents is negligible compared to the sun's heating and Earth's rotation etc.

Answer:

• The sun causes winds by heating the earth unevenly through the tilt of the earth.
• The sun heats the earth unevenly by the rotation of earth on its axis.
• Winds are created by differences in temperature and air pressure. Warm air rises, cool air sinks.
• Evaporation happens in different amounts all over the planet and this affects the amount of water in the air which then le.
