Answer (1)
Let's tackle each of the questions one by one:
An example of precipitation is:
(c) Rain
Precipitation refers to any form of water that falls from the sky to the Earth's surface, and rain is the most common type of precipitation.
Average weather pattern over a long period of time is called:
(a) Climate
Climate is defined as the average weather conditions in a region over a long period, typically 30 years or more.
The factors affect the climate of a region are:
(a) Elevation
Elevation can affect the climate since higher altitudes generally have cooler temperatures.
Distance of a place from the equator is known as:
(c) Longitude
Longitude measures how far east or west a location is from the Prime Meridian, while the distance from the equator is actually measured in latitude.
The forests of the following types is found in the tropical zone except:
(b) Grasslands
Grasslands are typically found in more temperate regions rather than tropical zones, which are home to rainforests and deciduous forests.
The term weather refers to:
(a) Changes in the atmosphere
Weather describes the short-term atmospheric conditions in an area, such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation.
