Answer:

As a cloud goes over a mountain, it rises. As air rises, it expands because there is less atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. ... Cool air holds less mois- ture, rain falls and the cloud loses moisture. After it passes over the mountain, it drops down in elevation and the air becomes compressed and becomes warmer.

Mountains can have a significant effect on rainfall. When air reaches the mountains, it is forced to rise over this barrier. As the air moves up the windward side of a mountain, it cools, and the volume decreases. As a result, humidity increases and orographic clouds and precipitation can develop.

Which option uses commas correctly ? (a) That girl, Sandra Gibbons is moving to Illinois. (b) My street address 1125 Forest Road
Anastasy [175]
The answer is D. When you are saying what a broader subject is, you surround it with commas. For example, when I say "My aunt, Sally, is old.". My broader subject is aunt. I show more detail by telling you her name, Sally. I hope this helps!
