How does air flow with regard to air pressure? How would air flow on Earth if the planet didn't rotate?
How does air flow since it does rotate? What will be an ideal response?
Air flows from high-pressure zones to low-pressure zones. If Earth did not rotate, air would flow in a
straight line from high to low pressure. Because Earth rotates, winds are deflected to the right of their
direction of motion
