Question

Match each type of precipitation with the process that creates it: convectional precipitation- when warm and cold air masses meet and warm air is forced upward; frontal precipitation- when hot air rises and cools, losing its ability to hold moisture; orographic precipitation- when warm air rises over mountains and cools

Answer 1

Here is the correct matching of each type of precipitation with its corresponding process:

1. **Convectional precipitation** - when hot air rises and cools, losing its ability to hold moisture.
2. **Frontal precipitation** - when warm and cold air masses meet and warm air is forced upward.
3. **Orographic precipitation** - when warm air rises over mountains and cools.
