Answer:
Warm, moist : ✔ maritime tropical
Warm, dry : ✔ continental tropical
Cold, moist : ✔ maritime polar
Cold, dry : ✔ continental polar
Step-by-step explanation:
Did on edge.
The air mass are classification based on their temperature and humidity which affects the prevalent weather of a region
The correct option set is presented as follows;
- Warm, moist—Maritime tropical (m T)
- Warm, dry—Continental tropical (c T)
- Cold, moist—Maritime polar (m P)
- Cold, dry—Continental polar (c P)
The reason for the above selection is as follows:
The location that a mass of air gains its properties of humidity and
temperature is known as the source region. The air mass is then moved
from the source region to other regions by the wind and while there the
acquired temperature and humidity is shared with the new region such
that the climate and weather of a region is partly a function of the present
air mass
The temperature and humidity characteristics of airmasses are used for
their classification. Classification of airmasses in North America which will
have the given weather characteristics include;
[tex]\begin{array}{lcr}\mathbf{Weather \ characteristics}&&\mathbf{Air \ mass}\\\\Moist, \, warm&\longrightarrow&Maritime \ tropical \ (m T)\\\\Dry, \, warm&\longrightarrow&Continental \ tropical \ (c T)\\\\Moist, \, Cold&\longrightarrow&Maritime \ polar \ (m P)\\\\Dry, \, cold&\longrightarrow&Continental\ polar \ (cP)\end{array}[/tex]
Therefore, we have the following selection of classification of air mass that would cause the given weather conditions as follows;
Warm, moist—Maritime tropical (m T); Air mass that bears moisture and causes rain
Warm, dry—Continental tropical (c T); Dry air mass formed over land usually from a desert area. A source of record heat
Cold, moist—Maritime polar (m P); Source of cloudy and cool weather
Cold, dry—Continental polar(c P); Cool and dry winter weather
