Question
Which statements are true? Hurricanes can be caused by physical processes in the hydrosphere. Most of the earth's freshwater can be found in the air and streams. Ocean currents move warm air from the equator toward the poles. The water cycle is powered by the sun. Wind is another name for atmospheric circulation patterns. Atmospheric circulation patterns keep the temperature of an area constant. Winds move easily across the plains.
Solution 1
Hurricanes can be caused by physical processes in the hydrosphere.

The water cycle is powered by the sun.

Wind is another name for atmospheric circulation patterns. 

Atmospheric circulation patterns keep the temperature of an area constant. 

Winds move easily across the plains.
Solution 2

Answer:

1. Ocean currents move warm air from the equator toward the poles.

2. The water cycle is powered by the sun.

3. Winds move easily across the plains.

4. Atmospheric circulation patterns keep the temperature of an area constant.

Explanation:

  • The oceanic currents move the warmer water to the polar or cold areas and thus bring the cold water or currents back to areas of warmer waters thus maintaining a balance between the surface flow of the atmospheric and the oceanic circulation of the planet.
  • Winds can move freely over the plains and thus thee speed sare drastically increased when they cross the large meadows and the grasslands and as compared to the plateaus and the hilly mountain tracks they tend to slow down and hence get obstructed.
  • The air in motion and the hydrosphere activities are all governed by the movement of the sun in the solar system.
