What is the BEST explanation that accounts for the climate in tropical areas near the equator? A) When the air is cooled it can absorb more moisture, and it tends to rise. Thus air near the poles, heated by the direct rays of the sun, absorbs moisture and rises.
B) When the air is warmed by the sun it can absorb more moisture, and it tends to rise. Thus air near the poles, heated by the direct rays of the sun, absorbs moisture and sinks.
C) When the air is cooled it can not absorb as much moisture, and it tends to sink. Thus air near the equator, heated by the indirect rays of the sun, absorbs no moisture and sinks.
D) When the air is warmer by the sun it can absorb more moisture, and it tends to rise. Thus air near the equator, heated by the direct rays of the sun, absorbs moisture and rises. Higher in the atmosphere the air cools again, forming clouds that produce rainfall.

D

Explanation:

The equator is hit with direct sunlight, and is known to be very humid and have lots of rainfall.

the correct answer is - d. china has a large and growing population.

the fact that china has a large (the biggest) population, and it is still growing, doesn't hinder the agriculture production in the country. in fact, it can for increased production in the agriculture, since there's more labor force, as well the sheer mass of people produces lots of scientists that come up with new inventions as to how to improve this sector. nice example is the inner mongolia region in china, in general dominated by the gobi desert, but few scientist came up with a nice idea as to how to make the region productive by using plants that are very resistant to droughts, so lots of people have been employed, and the region is becoming greener and greener each year, and the production of food in this region is also increasing.

maybe because its impossible for balloons to lift a whole entire house.
