Where are amphibians that eat living plants most likely to live in a lake

The littoral zone

Which quality makes Earth particularly well-suited to support life

It contains the right amount of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. Its distance from the sun helps maintain a narrow temperature range. It has a strong magnetic field.

A tropical depression can become more powerful by

A tropical depression can become more powerful by gaining energy from the moisture that evaporates from warm water, and be developing a more well-defined circulation.

Which best describes the way sunlight creates global ocean currents

Sunlight warms the equatorial waters more than polar waters. The tropics receive the most sun because of the tilt of the earth's axis. The uneven heating leads to convection.

As a result of the Coriolis effect an air mass moving from the equator toward the North Pole will
