Which option gives the correct example of permanent and variable components?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Nitrogen permanent and water vapour variable
The governing distinction is whether the amount of an atmospheric component remains nearly constant or changes with place, season and weather. Nitrogen is a permanent gas because its proportion is relatively stable throughout the atmosphere, whereas water vapour is variable because evaporation, condensation and precipitation continually change its amount. Thus option A is correct; the other choices reverse or misuse these categories.
