Large-scale atmospheric phenomena caused by air that is constantly in motion is know as?
Large scale atmospheric phenomena caused by air that is constantly in motion is known as weather. It is defined as the state of the atmosphere at a place and time as regards heat, dryness, sunshine, wind, rain, etc.
What is the definition for a convection?
1. The act or process of conveying; transmission.2. Physicsa. Heat transfer in a gas or liquid by the circulation of currents from one region to another.b. Fluid motion caused by an external force such as gravity.3. Meteorology The transfer of heat or other atmospheric properties by massive motion within the atmosphere, especially by such motion directed upward.
The energy source responsible for the motion of molecules that make up the atmosphere is a the pressure caused by the weight of air b solar power c atmospheric tides d natural kinetic energy?
solar power
What 2 scales are used on the thermometer?
The two scales are Fahrenheit and Celsius.
When will Celsius Fahrenheit and Kelvin scales temperatures be equal and how?
Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are equal at -40o Kelvin and Fahrenheit scales are equal at 574.25o
What one process sets the energy in the transfer atmosphere in motion?
Atmospheric circulation sets the energy in the transfer atmosphere in motion
Is Overall atmospheric motion is warm air to the poles and cold air to the equator true?
Yes

What abiotic factor of the marine biome is most effective on green algae?
Wave motion, salinity , atmospheric pressure
Which temperature scales has no negative temperatures?
The Kelvin scale has no negative values because 0 K is absolute zero, no motion.
Why are onions underground stems?
This type of modification of stem for storage of food is called bulb. The stem is extremely condensed in the form of a disc and is surrounded by fleshy scales. Since the scales (modified leaves) do not resort to photosynthesis, the bulb remains underground to overcome adverse atmospheric conditions of summers.
What is the primary mechanism of atmospheric heating?
The primary mechanism is KINETIC; the increase in the motion of atoms and molecules that is due to the absorption of incident Energy in the form of Photons.
What is the gravitational pressure at sea level?
1) Atmospheric Pressure If this is for the answers to the worksheet that goes with Matter and Motion in God's Universe, 2) 14.7 PSI
What are convection currents created by?
Convection currents are the flow of fluid (liquid or gas) caused by the molecular motion resulting from the transfer of heat through the fluid. In meteorology it is the vertical movement of atmospheric gases caused by heat, atmospheric pressure, condensation of water vapor, and other factors.
Do you say set of scales or scales?
Set of scales
What kind of body covering do fish have?
Most fish are covered in scales for protection. They vary in size, shape and structure and can range from strong and rigid to small or absent. The main types of scales include the cycloid scales, the ctenoid scales, the placoid scales and the ganoid scales.
Do bluegills have scales?
They Have scales.
