The answer is; B

Actually, viruses are considered nonliving things because they are unable to bear the characteristic of living things (such as respiration, reproduction, growth, excretion, and etcetera) on their own.  They only infect host cells to ride on the cell's biochemical machinery to be able to reproduce. Once outside the cells, they are non-living.

A weather station predicts that warm, humid air will pass over much cooler land
allsm [11]

Answer:

This happens when the air has a lot of moisture and when the temperature is low (because in this way the water in the air condenses). So if a weather station predicts that warm humid air will pass over much cooler land, the precaution must be to use healights and drive slowly because it will probably be dense fog.
