The correct matches are:

1. Hallie - She'll notice hotter temperatures year-round due to more absorbed radiation from the Sun;

California is a state where the dominant climate type is the Mediterranean. It is hot for most of the year, with low amounts of precipitation.

2. Kendra - She'll experience cooler overall temperatures, both day and night;

The Appalachians are relatively high. They have cooler temperatures and higher precipitation, making them a much colder place than the places on sea level.

3. Millicent - She'll see more snowfall due to elevated levels of moisture in the air during winter;

The Great Lakes region is dominated by continental climate. It is dry during the warmer part of the year, but it gets much more moist air in the winter, resulting in heavy snowfall and very low temperatures.

4. Lisa - She should prepare for hotter overall temperatures, both day and bight;

Florida has high temperatures throughout the whole year, both day and night. It is influenced by warm ocean currents that bring in warm and wet air masses.

5. Tatum - She should anticipate less frequent and lighter rain and snow showers;

The leeward sides of the mountains are the sides on the opposite side from where the wet air masses come. The rainfall occurs on the opposite side, the windward one, while the leeward gets mostly dry winds and very little precipitation.

Which statement describes the process of subduction?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The geological process taking place in the convergent boundaries is what is called subduction. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The tectonic plates moves from side to another and they are forced to sink because of substantial gravitational forces to the mantle.  

The crust of the earth is continuous however it is divided into pieces, the pieces, therefore, is one called tectonic plates, and they move close to each other through the power of convection cycles contained in the mantle below the crust enabling the plates to move freely.

djyliett [7]
A. The spelling of the two words might be similar and some sounds might be the same.

Although it is possible for words in two different languages to have the same spelling and/or pronunciation, it is much more likely that they would be similar. Since, the languages are derived from the same root and belong to the same family, it would make sense that the words would be similar, if not exactly the same.

Mekhanik [1.2K]
The curved circulation of surface currents is caused by the <span>Earth's rotation. 

</span><span>The 'Coriolis Effect' describes how Earth's rotation steers winds and surface currents (Figure 14.14). The Earth is a sphere that spins on its axis in a counterclockwise direction when seen from the North Pole. The further towards one of the poles you move from the equator, the shorter the distance around the Earth. This means that objects on the equator move faster than objects further from the equator. While wind or an ocean current moves, the Earth is spinning underneath it. As a result, an object moving north or south along the Earth will appear to move in a curve, instead of in a straight line. Wind or water that travels toward the poles from the equator is deflected to the east, while wind or water that travels toward the equator from the poles gets bent to the west. The Coriolis Effect bends the direction of surface currents.</span><span>
