Which of the following is the best explanation for the formation of Hadley cells in the tropics, as seen in the diagram between 30 degree N and 30 degree S latitude? - ANSWER The sun warms the moist air at the equator and causes it to rise because of its lower density. As the warm air moves away from the equator, it cools, becomes denser , and then sinks. Which of the following is the best explanation for the deflection of the trade winds in both hemispheres, as seen in the diagram above? - A...
