(c) 4.6 billion years ago.

(c) pumice

on the surface. The small air bubbles formed in it are visible to the naked eye. The
bubbles give it its lightweight feel and increase its usefulness in many everyday

(b) sediment settling in the ocean
(c) dead algae decomposing
(d) new plants growing in a forest


(a) transpiration


The correct answer is (a). Water enters the atmosphere through the process of
transpiration and evaporation. TRANSPIRATION specifically refers to water
movement through plants. CONDENSATION happens when water vapor
condenses together to form PRECIPITATION, which then falls back the Earth as
rain or snow. SEEPAGE is the movement of water through soil. -
ANSWER✔✔During the water cycle, water enters the atmosphere as gas through
__.


(a) transpiration
(b) condensation
(c) precipitation
(d) seepage


(b) freezing rain


Warm air fronts generally result in some form of precipitation, though not a full
blown storm like a hurricane (which is a specialized storm that develops over
warm ocean water). A sudden change in temperature is the result of a cold air front
and a stalemate is caused by a stationary front. - ANSWER✔✔The weather report
indicates a warm air front is moving in. Which of the following is most likely to
occur as a result of that warm air front?
