Question

what happens to jet streams as they get closer to the equator? they blow faster. they do not change. they dissolve. they blow slower.

Explanation:

Jet streams are driven by temperature differences and the Coriolis effect. The Coriolis effect weakens as you approach the equator, and the temperature gradient between polar and tropical air masses also diminishes near the equator. Both factors cause jet streams to slow down closer to the equator.

Answer:

They blow slower.
