Based on the surface conditions of each source region, which of the following statements is correct?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the characteristics of air masses formed over different regions based on the surface conditions illustrated in the provided map. We need to analyze the regions A, B, C, and D to determine which statement about the air masses is correct.
Answer
Air masses over Region A were more humid than over Region B.
The final answer is: Air masses that formed over Region A were more humid than those that formed over Region B.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is: Air masses that formed over Region A were more humid than those that formed over Region B.
More Information
Region A, having ice, could lead to more humid air masses due to sublimation and moisture present compared to Region B, which is a forest with less surface water.
Tips
A common mistake is not considering the sublimation process in icy regions which contributes to humidity.
