changes in the distance between Earth and the Moon unequal heating of Earth's surface by the Sun daily changes in the tilt of Earth's axis rapid rotation of the Sun on its axis
I gave my students this multiple choice question: Which factor causes global wind patterns?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- changes in the distance between Earth and the Moon
- unequal heating of Earth's surface by the Sun
- daily changes in the tilt of Earth's axis
- rapid rotation of the Sun on its axis

Could you tell me which one is correct?

unequal heating of Earth's surface by the Sun
