Question

A student in southern Georgia observes air temperature and humidity at different times of the year to see how energy from the Sun affects the water cycle. What will the student MOST LIKELY observe during summer daylight hours when the Sun’s rays hit the ocean
for a greater number of hours?


Group of answer choices

As air temperature increases above the ocean, evaporation and humidity increase.

As air temperature decreases above the ocean, condensation in clouds increases and humidity decreases.

As the surface ocean temperature increases, the air above the ocean cools, evaporation decreases, and humidity decreases.

As the surface ocean temperature decreases, the air above the ocean warms, condensation in clouds decreases, and humidity increases.

Answer 1

As air temperature increases above the ocean, evaporation and humidity increases.
