Prevailing winds- winds that come from a direction predominant during that specific time and place
doldrums- state of depression or inactivity
current- body of air that moves in a direct direction, especially through a surrounding mass of air that accumulates less movement
precipitation- snow, rain, hail, or sleet that falls to the ground
windward- direction of upwind from a specific point
leeward- direction downward from a specific point

From the given choices the true statement is Surface winds blow parallel to isobars.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
The winds which flow near the isobars, flow in the parallel direction of the isobars. They are not absolutely parallel to each other but are this much parallel that the purpose of the flight planning can be fulfilled with this.
These winds flow in perpendicular position to isobars which are present at that particular surface and they flow in this direction due to the acting of the force of friction in that area. This force of friction can also change the direction and the flow of the wind.
Scientists believe that increased pollution may cause global warming because pollution includes greenhouse gases, which trap heat in the Earth’s atmosphere.
Option B
<u>Explanation</u>:
When the average temperature of earth increases and rises continuously above the normal value for a long period of time the it is referred as global warming.
Human beings are major cause in increasing pollution by various means whether its chemical industrial metallic or any other type of pollution. The major contributing factor in aiding pollution is the smoke from factories or vehicles which increases the carbon dioxide level above normal and when these gases rises they are trapped inside the earth surface and produce a green house effect. This is the main reason that scientists think aboutglobal warming.
