Question

9 multiple choice 5 points which term refers to the atmospheric conditions that prevail from season to season and year to year at a certain location? weather climate equilibrium ecosystem 10 multiple choice 5 points earths hydrosphere is a layer of rock air lava water 11 multiple choice 5 points the convergence of two continental plates would produce island arcs. rift valleys. folded mountains. trenches.

Explanation:

• Question 9: Climate refers to the long - term atmospheric conditions (season to season, year to year) at a location. Weather is short - term. Equilibrium is a state of balance. Ecosystem is a community of living and non - living things interacting.
• Question 10: The hydrosphere is the layer of water on Earth (oceans, lakes, rivers, etc.). Rock is part of the lithosphere. Air is part of the atmosphere. Lava is molten rock.
• Question 11: When two continental plates converge, they push against each other and form folded mountains (e.g., the Himalayas). Island arcs form from ocean - ocean plate convergence. Rift valleys form from divergent boundaries. Trenches form from ocean - continental or ocean - ocean subduction.

Answer:

• Question 9: B. climate
• Question 10: D. water
• Question 11: C. folded mountains
