Summary Introduction
To determine:
“How does the fact that Earth is a sphere tilted on its axis influence the distribution of life”.
Concept introduction:
The Coriolis effect describes that the generation of apparent force due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. This force causes the deflection of freely moving objects according to the movement of the Earth’s surface. The object moves towards left in the Southern hemisphere and right in the Northern hemisphere.
