Air expands when it rises because of the pressure and temperature. While air rises, there is less compression and pressure on nearby air, so it expands, it's not as tight. Air also takes space. Think of it as units of stuff. People in mountains normally die because of the expanded air which is too thin to breathe, because all the molecules are apart and running away.

What are two ways water moves through the atmosphere?
Water moves through the atmosphere in the form of vapor through evaporation from oceans, lakes, rivers, and plants. It also moves through the atmosphere as clouds and precipitation through processes like condensation and precipitation.
An upward force on a plane is called?
'Lift' is an upward force on a plane. Upward force on a bird's wings is also called 'Lift'.
What is the main method of heat transfer in your atmosphere?
The main method of heat transfer in the atmosphere is through convection. As the Earth's surface is heated by the Sun, the air near the surface becomes warmer and less dense, causing it to rise. This upward movement of air transfers heat throughout the atmosphere.
How does sound move?
Sound moves through a medium, such as air, by creating vibrations that travel in the form of waves. These waves compress and expand the molecules in the medium, carrying the sound energy from its source to our ears. The speed at which sound travels depends on the medium through which it is moving.
If the air moves faster above an object does pressure push the object upward or downward?
If the air moves faster above an object, it creates a lower pressure area. In response, the higher pressure beneath the object will push it upward. This mechanism is known as lift and is how airplanes generate the force needed to fly.
What is a stratospohere?
The stratosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The stratosphere is the second layer, as one moves upward from Earth's surface, of the atmosphere.
What are two ways water moves through the atmosphere?
Water moves through the atmosphere in the form of vapor through evaporation from oceans, lakes, rivers, and plants. It also moves through the atmosphere as clouds and precipitation through processes like condensation and precipitation.
What air moves upward to areas of less air pressure?
Air that is warm and less dense moves upward to areas of lower air pressure due to the difference in density. This movement creates convection currents in the atmosphere, leading to the circulation of air masses in the atmosphere.

How does water move throughout our atmosphere and is cleaned?

What does peristalisis do?
It breaks down food and moves it through your body. muscles contract and expand
Why does air cool as it moves upward?
Air doesn't necessarily cool as it moves up, generally hotter air is lighter and so moves upward. However in the atmosphere the pressure gradually decreases with altitude, pressure and temperature are state functions and change according to one another. Generally if the pressure decreases (as it does with altitude) the temperature too, decreases.
What muscle moves the scapulae forward and rotate scapula upward?
The Serratus Anterior moves the scapula forward and rotates it upward.
What is the main way that energy moves through the atmosphere hydrosphere and geosphere?
by force
What is the upward force on a wing as it moves through the air?
Perhaps coincidentally, most aeronautical engineers refer to that force as "lift".
An upward force on a plane is called?
'Lift' is an upward force on a plane. Upward force on a bird's wings is also called 'Lift'.
Where does carbon dioxide moves to?
Into the atmosphere. Then it is basically recycled again through the CO2 cycle.
