Question

large global wind systems distribute earth’s heat and moisture. which of the following is a primary cause of the rising and sinking air in the hadley cells shown in the diagram? choose 1 answer: changing seasons due to the earth’s spin and tilt on its axis air density differences due to uneven solar heating at different latitudes the earth’s revolution around the sun due to inertia ocean temperature differences due to the locations of continents

Explanation:

Hadley cells are driven by uneven solar heating at different latitudes. The equator receives more direct sunlight, heating the air which becomes less dense and rises. At higher latitudes, the air cools, becomes denser and sinks. This creates the circulation pattern of Hadley cells.

Answer:

B. air density differences due to uneven solar heating at different latitudes
