question 11

Multiple Choice

With reference to the figure above,which of the following best describes the occurrence of the time of maximum daily temperature?

• A)It occurs at the same time that maximum insolation occurs,because that is when maximum energy is available for heating the air.
• B)It occurs before the time of maximum insolation,because the residual heat energy left over in the atmosphere from the previous day adds to the energy supplied by insolation.
• C)It occurs before the time of maximum insolation occurs,because the thermosphere transfers heat energy to the surface during the early morning hours as the D and E layers in the ionosphere become active.
• D)It occurs after the time of maximum insolation,because an energy surplus accumulates in the atmosphere while the Sun is still high in the sky and reaches a peak in mid-afternoon.
