Answer:

“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” (Genesis 3: 4-5).

Explanation:

God created the heavens and the earth. But he saw that the land was barren and incomplete so he made man in His own image. Making man out of the dust, he named him Adam and then made a woman out of Adam's ribs who he called Eve.

God had given permission to the two to eat or partake of anything inside the garden of Eden except one tree which stands in "the middle of the garden" (Genesis 3:2). But the serpent, first befriending the woman Eve asked her if God had given them any restrictions in the garden to which she replied that they are free to take anything as long as it is not from that tree in the middle, for eating this will lead to their death. But the serpent then told her that that wasn't the case. Instead of dying, he implied that "your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil" (Genesis 2 & 3). This lie told by the servant led to the one sin that led to the da*mnation of the whole of humanity.

1. What layer of the atmosphere does weather occur on?

wariber [46]

Wind is air in motion. It is produced by the uneven heating of the earth's surface by the sun. Since the earth's surface is made of various land and water formations, it absorbs the sun's radiation unevenly.
