What causes ocean water to be warmer at the equator than farther north? a. sunlight hits directly so the warmth is more concentrated b. cold water currents move from the poles to the equator c. seasonal winds push warm water away from the coasts d. sunlight hits at an angle so the warmth is spread over a wider area the answer is a. sunlight hits directly so the warmth is more concentrated (apex)

The answer is A. The sun hits it directly sort of like how where I live at noon is the warmest for that reason.

it would be c. xylem.

that would be called plucking : )

explanation:

''plucking, also referred to as quarrying, is a glacial phenomenon that is responsible for the erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint blocks". as a glacier moves down a valley, friction causes the basal ice of the glacier to melt and infiltrate joints (cracks) in the bedrock."
