The air over Earth’s surfaces absorbs heat from the materials of Earth. In Section 3 of the experiment, the air over the sand [___] the air over the water because sand [___] water. This difference in temperatures makes the air over the sand [___] the air over the water so it rises. The air above the water takes the place of the air above the sand. This movement of air creates a sea breeze.

Which statements describe the results of the effect of angle of insolation on absorption experiment? Check all that apply.At 3 minutes, the soil temperature at a 0° angle of insolation is higher than at 90°.At 6 minutes, the soil temperature at a 45° angle of insolation is higher than at 0°.At 9 minutes, the soil temperature at a 90° angle of insolation is lower than at 45°.At 12 minutes, the soil temperature at a 45° angle of insolation is lower than at 0°.At 15 minutes, the soil temperature at

Which statement describes how the angle of insolation affects different areas of Earth?The area near the pole absorbs more heat.The area near the equator receives less heat.The area near the equator is warmer than the area near the pole.The area near the pole receives more direct sunrays than the area near the equator.
