What is the Polar cell?

The Polar cell is much smaller and is thermally direct. Cold air sinks at the North Pole, before flowing south at the surface. Here it is warmed by contact with land/ocean around 60º North, where it rises.

Explain the weather of the equator using pressures

At the equator air is rising, this causes hot, humid conditions. It is often cloudy with rainfall- Low pressure

Explain the weather between the hadley cell and ferrel cell using pressures

Between the Hadley and Ferrel cell, air is sinking, this causes no clouds or rain- deserts are formed - high pressure
