mode
# that appears most often in the data set
air pressure

name the five dynastys
xia
shang
zhou
qin

altitude
distance above sea level
Athens

compatible
#'s/# that are easy to compute
stratosphere
contains most of the ozone absorbs ultraviolet light from sun, heats molecules in air. where jets fly . temps, increase here as you increase altitude. life we know wouldn't be possible without this layer
range
difference of the minim and maximum #
What mixture of gases is found in the atmosphere?
99% is nitrogen and oxygen and 1% of other gases
how did qin shi unify china
- legalism: ruled by fear
-Standarization: same $, weights, roads
- Built Great Wall of china to protect people
- ruled during warring kingdom kingdom ended
ratio
compare to #'s (is a fraction)
troposphere
where earths weather occurs, where we live. conditions are always changing its never consistant.almost all the earth carbon dioxide. water vapor, clouds, air pollution, and life forms are here
