Which combined factors shape the horizontal distribution of water vapour in the atmosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Temperature, distance from the sea, evaporation and air movement
Water vapour distribution is controlled by moisture supply, atmospheric capacity and transport. Warm air can hold more vapour, evaporation supplies moisture, places near oceans generally receive more moisture, and winds move it horizontally. These factors together make option A the correct answer. Lunar position, mineral hardness and mountain age do not directly determine ordinary atmospheric humidity patterns; ocean salinity may influence evaporation slightly but is not the complete controlling set.
