Explain why it is difficult to include water vapor in a graph that shows the percentages of various gases in the atmosphere?
The amount of water vapor in the air varies considerably depending on climate and weather. In a desert water vapor may account for a tiny fraction of a percent of the air. In a tropical rainforest during a storm water vapor may account for as much as 4% of the air.
Why the amount of water vapour has decreased?
Because people are using more hot water for almost everything. For example when someone is cooking with water they are boiling it which is makeing it turn into water vapor.
Why is a tornado's funnel wide at the top and narrow at the bottom?
The funnel of a tornado consists of water droplets which condese as a result of a temperature drop inside the tornado that results from the low pressure. Temperature decreases with increasing heght, alowing more water vapor to condense.
Do the percentages of gases in your atmosphere change?
Over long periods of time the concentrations of some gasses such as oxygen and carbon dioxide do change. Water vapor is even more variable, often changing on a daily or hourly basis.
What would happen if the air in the upper atmosphere were warmer than the water vapor in the air?
It is impossible for the water vapour in the air to be at a different temperature from the air of which it is a part. However warm air can hold more water vapour than cool air. Thus when air is warming up there are unlikely to be any clouds (clouds are caused by water vapour condensing out of air).
What is the difference between the air you inhale than the air you exhale?
the difference between inhale and exhale is when you inhale you get more oxygenthan you exhale
Why humans exhale more water vapour than they inspire?
Humans exhale more water vapour than they inhale because water vapour is a product of respiration which means that your body creates it so has more to get rid of.
What cause the difference in the amount of air you inhale and exhale?
Lungs alveoli has very large surface area, about 100 square meters. So air is fully saturated with water vapor and so it is more in amount.
Why exhaled air has more water vapour?
No. The exhaled air contents more water vapour. The exhaled air is almost saturated with water vapour.
Which two gases are which you exhale more than inhale?
Carbon dioxide and water vapour.
How do you use an inspirometer?
inhale slowly through the hose then exhale, DO NOT force yourself to inhale more than your lungs are comfortable with, its a lot like smoking except you exhale immediately like a breath
Why you see your breath on a cold day?
What you see is water vapor. The air that you exhale contains water vapor. When you exhale during a cold day, the relative humidity increases. Relative humidity is actually the percentage of the amount of water vapr in the air. (the maximum amount of water vapor that the air can hold at that temperature) The colder the air, the less water vapor it can carry. When exhaled, air mixes with cold air, the temperature of the exhaled air drops, but there is more water vapor. When the air becomes saturated, (relative humidity is 100%), the extra water vapor will condense, allowing you to see your breathe on cold days.

What is sent out of the body every time you exhale?
When you exhale, you actually release oxygen, nitrogen and other gasses. But most of all you release more carbon dioxide. People often think that the lungs must be full of carbon dioxide but they are not. The percentage of gas in the lungs that is highest is nitrogen. It isn't used by your body but is important in keeping your lungs inflated. But all-in-all, you exhale more carbon dioxide than you inhale.
Does the air you breathe out contain less water vapor than the air you breathe in?
No, the air you exhale is nearly saturated with water vapor. During breathing, air is exposed to the moist tissues of the sinus, trachea, and lungs, and will typically contain substantially more water vapor when exhaled. The only exception would be for air that is already saturated or supersaturated with water.
What is recyclable reasources?
trees- we can plant more air- we breathe out Carbon dioxide while plants breathe it in. We inhale oxygen while plants exhale it. water- It sounds gross, but quite frankly we can filter pee into drinking water.
Where is the carbon dioxide that you exhale produced?
The human body uses oxygen in cellular respiration to create energy by oxidizing carbohydrates (mostly sugars), fats, or protein. This process produces carbon dioxide, water, and other chemical by-products. The carbon dioxide is brought through the bloodstream to the lungs, where it is exchanged for more oxygen. The lungs exhale the carbon dioxide along with some water vapor and substantial remaining oxygen.
