Question

During the day, Susan notices that the wind is blowing onshore, that is from the sea to the shore. What is this called?
Sea Breeze
Land Breeze
Monsoon
Global Wind

What creates global winds?
an area of high pressure
air over the ocean
differences in heating
an area of low pressure

Answer 1

#1 is Sea Breeze because it's blowing from the SEA to the SHORE

Answer 2

Thank you! I was thinking number 2 is differences in heating; which causes the convection currents which cause global winds

Answer 3

I'm not entirely sure on #2 but I might know a guy. @JustSaiyan

I SUMMON THEE

Answer 4

A sea breeze is air blowing from the sea towards the shore.

Answer 5

100% correct. Good job.

Answer 6

@JustSaiyan so would #2 be C?

Answer 7

@JustSaiyan so would #2 be C?

Answer 8

I would say "air over the ocean". Global winds are formed from large scale convection currents, and the best place to get one would be the ocean, the largest form of water.

Answer 9

Oh... but aren't the convection currents formed because of the inconsistent heating of the earth? I mean if you think 'air over the ocean' is correct, I'll put that down, but I just want to like quadruple check XD

Answer 10

i suppose that could be the answer, as all wind is formed from uneven heat, BUT it is more of a domino effect deal. The heat makes the winds, the winds form the convection currents, the currents make the global winds, etc etc. I agree though, differences in heating seems a likely answer.

Answer 11

Okay... so which one do you think is more likely to be the answer?

Answer 12

differences in heating

Answer 13

Okay, thank you so much!! ^.^ I really appreciate it :D
