<span>Weather variations from year to year are far less dramatic in California than they are in most European wine regions. One major reason is that rain doesn't fall during the growing season in much of California. Napa Valley: The southern part of the valley is the coolest area, thanks to ocean breezes and mists from the San Pablo Bay. Northwards--away from the bay influence--the climate can get quite hot (but always with cool nights). Sonoma: Its climate is similar to Napa's, except that some areas near the coast are definitely cooler. Mendocino and Lake Counties: Cool climate. The San Francisco Bay: Cool breezes from the Bay. The Santa Cruz Mountains: Cool climate on the ocean side. Gold Country/The Sierra Foothills: Summers can be very hot, but many vineyards are situated as high as 1,500 feet and evenings are very cool. San Luis Obispo: Include the warm and hilly Paso Robles region and the cool and coastal Edna Valley and Arroyo Grande. Santa Barbara: The Santa Maria, Santa Ynez, and Los Alamos Valleys are cool climates that open toward the Pacific Ocean and channel in the ocean air. The southernmost Santa Ynez Valley boasts a cool climate on its western end, while the eastern end of the valley is warm enough to grow red grapes. In the cool western end is the Sta. Rita AVA.</span>
Answer:
This passage is mainly about asteroids striking Earth.
Explanation:
The presented passage is mostly focusing on asteroids striking Earth. It is something that has been happening since Earth has formed, and it will happen in the future as well. The vast majority of the asteroids don't really have any impact on Earth, but some have an impact that is devastating and long-lasting.
In the earlier stages of Earth, many more asteroids were falling on the surface, and the main reason for that has been the lack of atmosphere or a very thin atmosphere. As the atmosphere started to take shape and became similar to what is nowadays, the asteroid impacts decreased significantly because the atmosphere was managing to burn them and break them apart. This is not possible with all asteroids though, as some are so big and fall under an angle where the atmosphere doesn't really have any impact on them so when they fall on the surface they are able to cause sudden climatic changes, mass devastation, and mass extinction of species. Such an asteroid will be in a direction to hit Earth in the future for sure, the question remains will humans with their technology be able to prevent an impact or not.
C. The number is even or less than 12
Explanation:
Number 2 can be selected randomly and According to option A the number selected should be greater than 2.
B option is saying that the number is not divisible by 5 but the sample set contains { 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} . 5 and 10 can be selected and they are divisible by 5.
According to C even number can be selected or the numbers that are lesser than 12. The word "or" should be note here . Any number even or odd may be selected but it will be lesser than 12 so this will be the correct option.
Every element of sample set is either prime or composite so the selected number can either be prime or composite
Square root of 9 is 3 and square root of 10 is greater than 3. Statement will not be correct if number 9 or number 10 got selected the
