When forms when cold and warm air cannot overtake each other?

When a front forms, cold and warm air masses meet and neither can easily displace the other due to differences in density and temperature. This can lead to changes in weather patterns, such as precipitation and storm development along the boundary between the two air masses.


In which type of front is the flow of air on both sides of the front almost parallel to the line of the front?

A stationary front typically has air on both sides moving almost parallel to the front. This front forms when two air masses with different temperatures and densities meet but neither is strong enough to displace the other. This results in the fronts remaining in the same location for an extended period of time.


What type of front forms when the surface position of the front does not move?

A stationary front forms when the surface position of the front remains in the same location for an extended period, with neither the colder nor warmer air mass overtaking the other. This can result in prolonged periods of cloudy, rainy, or stormy weather.


What two significant factors in defining different climates?

The two significant factors in defining different climates are temperature and precipitation. Temperature determines the overall warmth or coolness of a region, while precipitation influences the amount of moisture that falls in the form of rain, snow, or other forms of precipitation. Together, these factors play a crucial role in shaping the characteristics of a climate zone.


How is a front formed?

A weather front typically forms when both warm and cool air meet. Both the difference in air temperature, as well as the density of the air, can cause a front. Warm fronts are more slow moving than cold fronts and usually produce precipitation. Fronts are depicted on weather maps with arrows showing where the front has come from and what direction the front is moving.

Mendel found that certain forms of genes were dominant to other forms of what?

Mendel found that certain forms of genes were dominant to other forms of genes. This means that when an organism has two different forms of a gene, one form will be expressed over the other in determining the trait it controls.


What does front mean in science terms?

A boundary between 2 air masses of different density moisture or temperature is a front.

Examine critically the salient features of the definition of mass communication that set it apart from other forms of communications?

Mass communication is different from other forms of communication in that it all takes place in public, even if its participants are never in the same room with each other. Reciprocal one-on-one communication is not possible in mass communication, except if it takes place in front of an audience.
