Why is there almost no temperature difference between Venus's equator and the poles? Group of answer choices Transportation of the solar energy by convection is very effective due to the planet's slow rotation. The absence of liquid and solid water at the poles makes them equally hot as the equator. The proximity of Venus to the Sun is such that the planet should be at the same temperature in every region. It is not true that the equator and the poles have almost the same temperature.
