How is water vapour related to temperature in the atmosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Air can hold more water vapour when temperature rises
At higher temperatures, air can contain more water vapour before reaching saturation; at lower temperatures, saturation is reached with less vapour. This relationship helps explain relative humidity, condensation, clouds and precipitation. Option A states the general physical principle. The words “always zero,” “no relation,” and “only in stones” contradict observed atmospheric moisture behaviour.
