When air moves away from the tropics and toward the poles it becomes .?
cool and dry
What general trend does a world isothermal map show?
temperatures decreasefrom the tropics toward the poles.
What takes the place of warm air?
As the warm air rises and moves toward the poles,cooler air moves from the poles toward the equator to replace it. Resource:Factors of Weather:Air movement Close to the Earth (science sheet)
Where do global winds move warm air?
Toward The Poles
How global winds move warm air toward the?
Poles.

Where do large scale weather systems develop and why are they important?
Large scale weather systems that transport surface cold air toward the tropics and surface warm air toward the poles.
Into how many world climate regions do most geographers divide the earth?
5. Tropics, subtropics and poles. subtropics are between the tropics and poles on each side.
Where are the tropics and polar region found?
Tropics- area near equator polar- area closer to the poles
How does uneven heating of the earth set up conditions for the prevailing winds on a nonrotating earth?
It sets up two circulation cells where warm air aloft moves toward the poles and cool surface air moves toward the equator.
How are the tropics and poles different?
becaus one is cold and one is hot
Match the type of heat transfer to the example a conduction warm air moves toward the poles b convection ice cubes melt quickly on a hot frying pan c radiation the sun bombards earth wi?
Conduction: Ice cubes melt quickly on a hot frying pan Convection: warm air moves toward the poles Radiation: The sun bombards Earth with light
Why do lines of latitude decrease in size as they move towards the poles?
Because the parallels of latitude are imaginary lines drawn on the Earth's surface, and, you may have noticed, cross sections of the Earth itself decrease in diameter as the cutting plane moves toward the poles.
How does differences in air pressure puts air in motion?
The difference in air pressure causes wind, air motion, because the greater the pressure difference the faster wind moves. Warm air is less dense, it moves toward or up to the poles. at the poles it will sink and the cold air will go to the equator creating the moment of of air.
