As hot air rises, it makes pockets in which there is no air. Air around this pocket then fills in, causing wind because of the rushing of the air into the space. The air that moves in is usually cold, due to the fact that cold air tends to be closer to the ground. I do not know/cannot remember the reason why wind has one specific direction, but I think it is generally caused by the cold front and the direction it's coming from.

What cells does the cold effect?

The cold can affect various cells in the body, but it primarily affects the cells in the respiratory system. Exposure to cold temperatures can reduce blood flow to the skin, leading to vasoconstriction and potential damage to skin cells. Additionally, cold temperatures can also impact immune cells, making individuals more susceptible to infections.


Why doe mutated DNA have no effect on future offspring?

Mutated DNA can have an effect on future offspring because DNA is the coding of life a mistake can cause genetic diseases or even death. The genetic code is half paternal and half maternal so if there is any genetic mistake in their DNA can then get passed on through the generations.


For a mutation to affect evolution it must occur in?

For a mutation to affect evolution, it must occur in the DNA of reproductive cells (sperm or egg cells) so that it can be passed on to offspring. Mutations that occur in somatic cells (non-reproductive cells) do not directly impact evolution as they are not inherited by future generations.


How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation in a non-sex cell?

Mutations in sex cells can be passed on to children. Mutations in sex cells only affect offspring. Mutations in sex cells do not affect the organism.


Cells that live together but have no functional relationship with or effect on each other are?

Cells that live together but have no functional relationship with or effect on each other are called "commensal." These cells coexist in the same environment without harming or benefiting each other.

How convection cells affect the wind and Coriolis Effect?

earth rotates and this makes water flow in different divections.


What is one convection cell that forms because of the coriolis effect?

The Coriolis Effect is the phenomenon that effects global winds. A convection cell is a form of wind and this is the first part of the coriolis effect.


How many major atmospheric convection cells would there be without Coriolis effect?

Without the Coriolis effect, there would likely be only three major atmospheric convection cells in each hemisphere: the Hadley cell, the Ferrel cell, and the Polar cell. The Coriolis effect causes the deflection of winds and influences the formation of these cells, leading to a more complex circulation pattern. Without it, air would rise at the equator and sink at the poles, resulting in a simpler, direct flow of air from the equator to the poles. This would significantly alter global wind patterns and climate systems.

What force causes a convection cell to turn?

The force that causes a convection cell to turn is the Coriolis force, which is a result of the rotation of the Earth. This force deflects moving air or water in the cell, leading to the rotation that defines a convection cell.


How do convection cells in earth atmosphere cause high and low?

What is the difference between winds and local winds?

The combination of convection cells found at every 30 degrees of latitude and the Coriolis effect produces patterns of air circulation called global winds. Local winds blow from any direction and move short distances. Local winds are caused by unequal heating within a small area.

What does the convection cell do to the lithosphere?

Convection in the mantle creates movement of tectonic plates, which can affect the lithosphere by causing it to move, leading to processes like subduction or seafloor spreading. The convection cells help drive the movement of the lithospheric plates on the Earth's surface.
