Hotter air rises and moves away from the equator, then cools and falls and moves back to the equator.
Hotter air rises and moves away from the equator, then cools and falls and moves back to the equator.

Hotter air rises and moves toward the equator, then cools and falls and moves away from the equator.
Hotter air rises and moves toward the equator, then cools and falls and moves away from the equator.

Cooler air rises and moves toward the equator, then warms and falls and moves away from the equator.
Cooler air rises and moves toward the equator, then warms and falls and moves away from the equator.

Cooler air rises and moves away from the equator, then warms and falls and moves back to the equator.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

Hotter air rises and moves away from the equator, then cools and falls and moves back to the equator.

This describes the convection pattern in the Hadley cells, where warm air at the equator rises, moves toward the poles, cools as it travels, then sinks and returns towards the equator at about 30° latitude.
