Answer:
The troposphere extends from Earth’s surface to an average of 12 km (7 miles). As you move upward, air pressure <u>decreases</u>. The temperature generally <u>decreases</u> with increasing height up to the tropopause. The <u>tropopause</u> marks the transition into the stratosphere. <u>Winds</u> increase with height up the jet stream. The interaction of solar energy and wind cause the upper layer of the troposphere to have a <u>low</u> moisture content. <u>Convection</u> occurs in the troposphere due to the presence of water in the air as well as energy transfer from radiation and <u>weather</u>.

I've found these answers by looking at the word and its makeup (what kind of word it is, where it sounds like it would be found in the paragraph) as well as the hints given in the text, with minimal help from the internet. Hope these help!
Answer: We are not initially responsible for the capture of slaves taken as a result of war.
The first statement disputes the claim because it argues that captives from wars might still be taken in an unjust way. The third statement similarly disputes the claim by arguing that not all captives are victims of combat, but some were kidnapped despite their peaceful existence. Finally, the last statement argues that even if captives were taken lawfully in those wars, it would still be a great kindness to help them.
The second statement, on the other hand, supports the claim. It argues that the capture of slaves is not our responsibility, as they have been lawfully taken during war.
