What is weather?

Weather varies greatly and is influenced by the Earth's atmosphere, which consists of gases like nitrogen, oxygen, and water vapor. These gases change temperature and move, creating different weather conditions. Clouds form when water vapor condenses, leading to precipitation such as rain, hail, sleet, or snow. Wind results from air moving between high and low-pressure areas. Weather significantly impacts daily activities and is crucial for agriculture, affecting crop growth and survival.

What is the primary composition of the Earth's atmosphere?

• It forms wind

• It causes earthquakes

Which of the following is NOT a form of precipitation?

How is wind generated in the atmosphere?

• By the rotation of the Earth

• By the movement of gases from high to low pressure

• By the gravitational pull of the moon

• By the evaporation of water

Why is weather important to farmers?

• It determines the price of crops

• It affects the growth and health of crops
