Answer:

Explanation:

The Zhou Dynasty was a type of reign or governance in China. It lasted longer than any other dynasty in Chinese history.

It was characterized by the system of monarchy. The monarchs of the time practised agnatic/patrilineal primogeniture.

Patrilineal primogeniture is a system of passing down inheritance, whereby the main assets of a monarch or the head of a family are transferred to his first born son.

Younger siblings and female siblings were excluded from owning such property. The sons of the monarch come first on the inheritance train, before his brothers or other relatives.

All descendants through females or daughters (even though the descendants be male) stand no chance of gaining inheritance. The first son takes the chunk of the inheritance, while leftovers are shared by the other sons of the monarch.

1. Explain the importance of water vapour in the atmosphere.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

1. Water vapor is also the most important greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Heat radiated from Earth's surface is absorbed by water vapor molecules in the lower atmosphere. The water vapor molecules, in turn, radiate heat in all directions. Some of the heat returns to the Earth's surface.

2. The difference between evaporation and condensation is that evaporation happens before a fluid arrives at its limit, while condensation is a stage change paying little heed to the temperature. Evaporation is continuous when the air is dry, hot, and breezy, while during condensation, fume changes into fluid after arriving at the edge energy level.

3. Hailstones are formed when raindrops are carried upward by thunderstorm updrafts into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere and freeze. Hailstones then grow by colliding with liquid water drops that freeze onto the hailstone's surface.

4. Cloud is an aerosol consisting of a visible mass of minute liquid droplets, frozen crystals, or other particles suspended in the atmosphere of a planetary body or similar space. Water or various other chemicals may compose the droplets and crystals. On Earth, clouds are formed as a result of saturation of the air when it is cooled to its dew point, or when it gains sufficient moisture (usually in the form of water vapor) from an adjacent source to raise the dew point to the ambient temperature. They are seen in the Earth's homosphere, which includes the troposphere, stratosphere, and mesosphere.
