______ can amplify the effects of temperature by increasing the rate of heat loss by convection.

Sagot :

Answer:

wind

Explanation:

As the air heats up and becomes less dense, it rises higher into the atmosphere, thereby cooler air takes its place and produces wind (moving air is wind). This wind can produce a positive feedback loop that increases the transfer of heat by both evaporation (i.e., by losing heat through the conversion of water to vapor) and convection (i.e.,  through the movement of air). In consequence, wind created by temperature fluctuation can amplify the effects of temperature. In organisms, winds can also contribute to water loss by increasing the evaporation/transpiration rate.
