Page 5 Earth’s Atmosphere: Main Ideas What is air pressure? (pg. 234-235) a) The amount of pressure that air molecules are exerting on the molecules below them. Quick Check (pg. 235) -What layer of our atmosphere are 99% of the oxygen and all life found? a) troposphere Earth’s Weather: Lesson 1
Page 6 Earth’s Atmosphere: Main Ideas 2) How does temperature affect air pressure? (pg. 236-237) a) When temperature increases, air pressure decreases. When air temperature decreases, air pressure increases. Quick Check (pg. 237) -How does altitude affect air pressure? a) The higher the altitude the lower the air pressure. The lower the altitude the higher the air pressure. Earth’s Weather: Lesson 1
Page 7 Earth’s Atmosphere: Main Ideas 3) How does volume affect air pressure? (pg. 236) a) The more volume the lower the air pressure. The less volume the higher the air pressure. Quick Check (pg. 237) -The amount of water vapor in the air is called? a) humidity Earth’s Weather: Lesson 1
