How is the amount of water vapour in the atmosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Varies with place and time
Water vapour is a variable component of the atmosphere. Its amount changes with temperature, location, season, humidity, evaporation and distance from water bodies. Warm air can hold more moisture, so humid tropical or coastal areas generally contain more water vapour than cold, dry regions. Therefore, option D is correct; it is not uniform like the major permanent gases.
