Answer:
Explanation:
When the cooled air reaches a high pressure zone, it sinks. Back on the ground, the air then travels toward the low pressure at the equator. The air rising at the low pressure zone at the equator and sinking at a high pressure in the direction of the North or South Pole creates a convection cell.

Answer:
As the air moves away from the poles and along Earth's surface, it begins to warm and the pressure drops. This drop in pressure creates low pressure belts around 60° north and 60° south latitude. Convection cells, which are circular patterns of wind, are caused by this rising and sinking of air.
