Why does earth's air temperature vary greatly during the day, while its ocean
temperature varies only slightly?
o
a. the ocean has a lower heat capacity.
o
b. the ocean receives more of the sun's energy.
o
c. the atmosphere has a lower density.
o
d. the atmosphere has a lower heat capacity.

Option D

Explanation:

The temperature of the air varies greatly during the day and very slightly during in oceans. This is because the temperature of the air varies more easily as compared to water.

The particles in the air are far and hence it has less ability to resist change in the temperature so it changes.

The particles of the water are too close together and thus water has high heat holding capacity so there is a slight change in the temperature of water as compared to air.

answer: grassland biomes are closer to the equator and receive more rain.

grasslands are biomes that are dominated by grasses rather shrubs and trees. savanna are biomes that exhibit grasses, shrubs and small tree as vegetation. grasslands are located near the equator of the earth. these are found in north america. savanna biomes are found in africa, south america, australia and india. grassland exhibit moderate climatic conditions, it receives   amount of rainfall higher than savanna.   therefore, savanna exhibit dry and hot climatic conditions.
