Why will storm 2 produce more rain?
A) Storm 2. Wind pushed more water vapor out of the warmer air parcel.
B) Storm 2. Wind pushed the warmer air parcel even higher and the air parcel lost more energy.
B) Storm 2. Wind pushed the warmer air parcel even higher and the air parcel lost more energy.

Wind is the movement of air in a particular direction. It...
A) Pushes an air parcel higher, causing it to lose more energy, which causes more rain.
B) Keeps the air parcel at the surface, causing less rain.
A) Pushes an air parcel higher, causing it to lose more energy, which causes more rain.

The air temperature of Puerto Rico is higher than the air temperature of Canada. What is the main cause of the different air temperatures?
A) More heat from the center of Earth is transferred to the ground in Puerto Rico than in Canada, and that energy transferred to the air above it.
B) There is less wind in Puerto Rico and more wind in Canada.
C) More energy from the sun is transferred to the ground in Puerto Rico than in Canada and that energy is transferred from the ground to the air above it.
C) More energy from the sun is transferred to the ground in Puerto Rico than in Canada and that energy is transferred from the ground to the air above it.

What could explain why Storm 1 had more rainfall than Storm 2? Storm 1's air parcel was...
A) warmer, so when cooler air from above moved down, it lost more energy.
B) warmer, so when the air parcel moved higher, it lost more energy
B) warmer, so when the air parcel moved higher, it lost more energy
