How does the atmosphere circulate as air masses?
The atmosphere moves in masses. When two masses collide they are called fronts. When a cold air mass goes into the land occupied by a warm mass it makes a cold front. The opposite makes a warm mass.
What is the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of a fluid?
Convection
What is the process in which particles in gas or liquid moves from higher to lower concentration?
Particles in a gas or liquid moving from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration represents passive transport. This does not use energy.

What happens when two substances that have different temperatures touch each other heat moves from one to the other by what?
Heat transfer by contact is called conduction.
A cell moves particles from a region of lesser concentration to a region of greater concentration by what?
The process in which particles move from high to low concentration is called diffusion .
What is called when a molecule moves across a semipermable membrane into a region of a higher concentration?
When a molecule moves to a higher concentration it needs help of a pump. We call this facilitated diffusion. Osmosis only deals with the movement of water.
When particles are moves through a membrane from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration?
Diffusion
As warm moist air moves into a region barometric pressure readings in the region will generally?
Decrease
When water moves through an area of higher concentration to lower concentration?
When a region of higher concentration to a region of Lower concentration against the gradient which requires Energy is called Active Transport

What the bit that moves on a metronome called?
The bit a on a metronome that moves is called a 'pendulum'.
What is transfer of thermal energy by the movement of a fluid?
This is called convection. One part of the fluid is heated and when it moves to a region of less energy it gives up some heat.
