Answer 1

When two air masses with different temperatures or humidity levels meet, they do not immediately mix or blend. Instead a line or boundary forms between them. This boundary is called a......front

Explanation:

Due to the different properties, especially temperatures. The less-dense air mass tends to rise while the denser tends to dive at the front causing turbulence. There are four main types of fronts;

1. Cold front – bring rainfall and thunderstorms
2. warm front – associated with less intense weather
3. Occluded front – when a warm air mass is in between two cool air masses
4. Stationary front - can be warm or cold but barely moves
