What causes ocean currents in the Northern Hemisphere to curve to the right?

• Earth's orbit around the Sun
• Earth's spinning on its axis
• Earth's magnetic field
• Earth's force of gravity

If the Earth did not rotate on its axis, there would be no

• Greenhouse effect
• Coriolis effect
• Global warming
• Convection

Cities closer to water most likely will be

• more dry
• more humid
• hotter

Climate is

• the further you get from the equator
• the higher you go, the colder it gets
• the conditions of the atmosphere at a certain place and time.
• the average weather conditions of an area over a long period of time.

Earth’s climate system is powered mainly by energy from:

• Tilt
• The sun
• Latitude
• The rain shadow

Scientists who study weather and try to predict it are called

• astronomers
• climatologist
• meteorologist
• weatherologist

Movements of ocean water in a continuous flow are called?

• ocean currents
• global winds
• air mass
• front

If you wanted to find the jet stream, where would you go? 

• The area around the poles
• The area around the equator
• 10 km above the earth's surface
• 1 km above the earth's surface

What causes wind to blow?

• Differences in longitude
• Shock waves from clouds
• Differences in air temperature and pressure
• The rotation of earth

What causes warm air to rise? 

• The fact that it's less dense than cold air
• The fact that it weighs more than cold air
• The fact that it has higher pressure than cold air
• The fact that it's more dense than cold air
