The wind blows in response to:?

Question

A - temperature differences.
B - pressure differences.
C - both temperature and pressure differences.
D - earth's rotation.

Answer 1

c.............

Answer 2

I agree with meno25. The wind is caused by pressure differences. But pressure differences are cause by temperature differences.

Answer 3

It depends what you mean by wind! All of these can cause wind!

Temperature differences cause updrafts and downdrafts known as convective currents.

Pressure differences is the cause of much the wind we experience.

The Earth's rotation causes a very insignificant breeze, too, but has an enormous effect on the direction and intensity of pressure gradient winds.

Answer 4

Temperature differences causes pressure differences which causes the wind to blow.

Answer 5

I think it's A. Temperature differences

As the heat from the equator goes to the poles it cools down, and goes back to the equator where it'll be reheated. This causes different temperatures, and may be the answer to your question.

Answer 6

All the above.

Temp diff causes the convection current that moves the air
Cyclone etc caused by the pr differences
Earths rotations also causes the air to flow from the equator to the poles

Answer 7

I think its C your thinking of, though I can best describe it as a combination of the two.

The wind, if heated, rises. That would bring in a cool breeze or wind.

Or if it was cold air, warm air would come from above to replace it, creating wind as well.

Please tell me in a comment if I am thinking of pressure systems.

Answer 8

A.


wind moves due to uneven heating of air.

Answer 9

i say B idk if temp has anything to do with the wind other then affecting what it feels like. And i dont think earths rotation has anything to do with wind either....

Answer 10

Ohhhh Ohhhhhhhhh I know the answer!!!!!! but it looks like this is something YOU need to find out for yourself. Think about it. :-)
