Winds generally flow away from the equator and toward the poles. What transfer does this flow of wind cause?

Question

A.
an energy transfer, with heat energy moving away from the equator
B.
a water transfer, with water moving from the atmosphere to the ocean
C.
a water transfer, with water moving from the ocean to the atmosphere
D.
an energy transfer, with heat energy moving toward the equator

Answer 1

The correct answer is: A. an energy transfer, with heat energy moving away from the equator.

Winds help to redistribute heat from the equator toward the poles, affecting global climate patterns and temperatures.
