Understanding Global Winds and Uneven Heating

How does the Sun primarily transfer energy to the Earth?

• Through the ocean currents

• To the Earth's surface

• Directly to the atmosphere

• Via the moon's reflection

What causes the uneven heating of the Earth?

• The Earth's magnetic field

• The Earth's rotation speed

• The Earth's round shape

• The Earth's distance from the Sun

Why does water vapor rise near the equator?

• Due to gravitational pull

• Because it is denser

• Due to the Earth's rotation

• Because it is warmer and less dense

What happens to water vapor as it rises and cools?

• It disappears

• It becomes denser

• It evaporates further

• It forms into clouds

What weather pattern is typical after rain has fallen in a region?

• Sunshine

• Dense fog

• Continuous rain

• Snowfall
