Answer the following question given this paragraph: The rising air cools as it goes higher in the atmosphere. If it is moist, the water vapor may condense. Clouds may form, and precipitation may fall. Q: Does air temperature increase or decrease as it rises higher in the atmosphere? Choices: - both - increase - neither - decrease A:
decrease

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Wind blows small particles away. As a result, the ground surface gets lower and rockier; this is called deflation . The rocks that are left are called desert pavement . Desert pavement is a surface covered by gravel-sized particles that are not easily moved by wind. Q: What is the process by which wind blows to make the ground surface gets lower and rockier ? Choices: - inflation - stagnation - layering - deflation A:
(Answer)
deflation

(Q).
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The key to continued growth and repair of plant cells is meristem . Meristem is a type of plant tissue consisting of undifferentiated cells that can continue to divide and differentiate. Meristem at the tips of roots and stems allows them to grow in length. This is called primary growth. Meristem within and around vascular tissues allows growth in width. This is called secondary growth. Q: What is the name of the type of plant tissue consisting of undifferentiated cells that can continue to divide and differentiate? Choices: - cuticle - guard cell - bundle sheth cell - meristem A:
(A).
meristem
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: The amount of kinetic energy in a moving object depends directly on its mass and velocity. It can be calculated with the equation: . Q: The amount of kinetic energy in a moving object depends directly on what two factors? Choices: - revolution and velocity - inertia and momentum - gravity and weight - mass and velocity A:

Ans:mass and velocity
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Climate conditions in a small area may be different from those of the surroundings. The climate of the small area is called a microclimate . The microclimate of a valley may be cool relative to its surroundings since cold air sinks. The ground surface may be hotter or colder than the air a few feet above it. This is because rock and soil gain and lose heat readily. Different sides of a mountain will have different microclimates. In the Northern Hemisphere, a south-facing slope receives more solar energy than a north-facing slope. Each side supports different amounts and types of vegetation. Q: What is the climate of a small area called? Choices: - ecosystem - biome - microevolution - microclimate A:
microclimate
