4) Heat from the sun moves through space by the process of
A
convection
B
conduction
C
radiation
D
circulation
5) What role does heat energy from the Sun play in influencing ocean currents?
A
The warm water at the equator moves toward the poles and the cooler water from the poles moves toward the equator.
B
The polar ice caps melt due to the heat of the Sun, causing warm currents to move toward the equator.
C
The higher rate of evaporation at the equator causes water from the poles to move toward the equator.

conduction
B
solaration
C
convection

closer together and move faster.
B
farther apart and move faster.
C
further apart and move more slowly.
D
closer together and move more slowly.
