The correct answer is - rain.

When the cold and dry air from the polar parts moves over the Great Lakes it accumulates heat and moisture, thus changing its structure. By becoming warmer and moist, the air masses start to create clouds, and as they move forward, on the place where they will come up to a natural barrier will start to produce rain. Because of this, the leeward land of the lake will be getting rainfall, and it will be much more wet than the windward side of the lakes.

In this case, the natural barrier will not be a mountain range, but instead, the land itself, as the air masses above the land, and the air masses above the lakes have different properties.

Explain why the inner core remains a solid even though it is very hot.
Zinaida [17]
The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials - like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't "melt" very easily, so they stay solid. Also, pressure due to the weight of the mantle and crust, atoms are forced together as solid.

Why did China believe the building of the Three Gorges Dam was an absolute necessity in terms of energy production?
Anna [14]
China believes that building the Three Gorges Dam was an absolute necessity in terms of energy production because it can generate hydro-electric energy from Yangtze River. This hydro-electric-producing dam would generate less pollution than coal-fire generation and would slow the river from overflowing and destroying nearby villages.
