What general category of sensory receptors detects variations in temperature?
themorecptrs
Why do high latitude water lack a pycnocline?
Density variations of seawater with latitude are very similar to those for temperature variations with latitude. Because of the influence of temperature on seawater density, low latitudes exhibit lower densities at the surface that rapidly increase with depth. Higher latitudes exhibit little or no difference in density owing to the lack of a thermocline. Such a rapid change in density with depth is called a pycnocline, and like a thermocline is absent at higher latitudes.
What is a thermometer used for?
The use of a thermometer is to measure hot and cold in Fahrenheit and in Celsius. To measure body temperature, air temperature, atmosphere temperature. It is a scientific instrument to record temperature. It's used to measure temperature of various things. For examples- the human body , weather, liquids etc The word "thermometer" literally means to "measure heat". As such, variations of the device are used to measure the heat of numerous items, including, but not limited to, the body heat of a human or animal, or to ensure proper cooking temperatures, or to trigger a device, such as via an automobile radiator's thermostat, or even to measure the temperature of distant stars.

To take temperature of our body
Who is generally credited with the invention of thermometer?
everal inventors invented a version of the thermoscope at the same time. In 1593, Galileo Galileiinvented a rudimentary water thermoscope, which for the first time, allowed temperature variations to be measured. Today, Galileo's inventioni is called the Galileo Thermometer, even though by definition it was really a thermoscope. It was a container filled with bulbs of varying mass, each with a temperature marking, the buoyancy of water changes with temperature, some of the bulbs sink while others float, the lowest bulb indicated what temperature it was.
Natural selection cannot occur without what?
Variations within a population. Variations mean traits that only certain individuals have that give the individual a greater or lesser chance of reproducing.
Do tornadoes form with variations of temperature?
Variations in temperature often play a role in the formation of tornadoes, but they are not the only factor.
Is the vertical movement of air currents due to temperature variations?
What is the vertical movenment to air currents due to temperature variations?
Where on earth are the seasonal variations of temperature in Daly Lane greatest and least?
Variations of day length greatest? North and South Pole Variations of day length least? Equator Variations of temperature least? Equator
Where are seasonal variations of temperature and day length?
The further you go away from the equator towards the poles, the greater the seasonal temperature and daylight variations.
Can an earthquake be caused by temperature?
Not by temperature variations at Earth's surface, no. However, temperature variations in Earth's mantle play a role in plate tectonics, and so can affect earthquake activity.
Why are variations in temperature?
Because of sea and oceans
Why do parts of Saudi Arabia have high temperature variations?
its variations in elevation play a part in climate distribution
Which climate zone has the largest seasonal variations in temperature?
Temperate
