Answer:

hey mate

Explanation:

ans1. The transfer of energy, such as heat or an electric charge, through a substance. In heat conduction, energy is transferred from molecule to molecule by direct contact; the molecules themselves do not necessarily change position, but simply vibrate more or less quickly against each other.

2.Insolation is the incident solar radiation onto some object. Specifically, it is a measure of the solar energy that is incident on a specified area over a set period of time. Generally insolation is expressed two ways. So the following sentence is true

3. Climate

4.Prevailing winds are winds that blow consistently in a given direction over a particular region on Earth. Due to factors such as uneven heating from the Sun and the Earth's rotation, these winds vary at different latitudes on Earth. ... In Southeastern Asia, these winds result in the formation of monsoons and deserts.

5(i).Conduction: When the heat and energy is radiated by the Earth, it warms the layers of atmosphere directly above it. This is called conduction. When one layer of the Earth absorbs radiation, it transfers the heat to the lower level by the process of conduction.

(ii)In convection, thermal energy is carried by the large-scale flow of matter.
