Question
an air mass takes on its source regions
a. temperature and humidity
b. landforms and air pressure
c. clouds and wind
d. altitude and humidity
An air mass acquires the characteristics of its source region. Temperature and humidity are key properties determined by the source region (e.g., a warm, moist source region makes the air mass warm and moist). Landforms affect local weather but aren't "taken on" by the air mass as a whole. Clouds and wind are weather elements influenced by many factors beyond just the source region. Altitude isn't a property "taken on" in the same sense as temperature and humidity from the source region.
