Which is correct about how air typically moves? High-pressure air and low-pressure air move alongside each other.

Question

High-pressure air and low-pressure air move alongside each other.

Air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas.
Air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas.

High-pressure air moves on top of low-pressure air.
High-pressure air moves on top of low-pressure air.

Air moves from low-pressure areas to high-pressure areas.

Answer 1

The correct statement about how air typically moves is:

Air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas.

This is a fundamental principle of atmospheric science. Air tends to flow from regions of high pressure, where the air is denser, to regions of low pressure, where the air is less dense, creating winds and weather patterns. The other statements are either incorrect or less accurate in the context of general air movement.
