Over the course if a year, areas near Earths equator receive more direct energy from the Sun than areas near Earth's poles. Which of the following correctly describes one result of this heating pattern? F. The poles lose all their heat at night. G. Atmospheric and oceanic currents distribute heat from the tropics to the poles. H. Sunlight overheats the oceans near the equator, making it impossible for sea life to exist there. I. Sunlight evaporates amount of surface water near the tropic, creating flooding in this part of the world.

OpenStudy (caominhim):

well F is not true because of the atmosphere which holds in at least some heat energy G is true, not sure if applicable h is not true I doesn't directly make sense

OpenStudy (shamim):

I think correct answer is I

OpenStudy (caominhim):

but it's over the course of a year. While I is plausible, i would more attribute that to a month at most, water goes up, water comes down.
