Why do the effects of water vapour appear more local compared with permanent gases?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because its amount depends on local temperature and moisture sources
Unlike permanent gases, water vapour is highly variable in both space and time. Its concentration depends on nearby oceans, lakes, vegetation, soil moisture, evaporation and local temperature. Warm air can hold more vapour, while cooling causes condensation and removal through clouds or rain. Consequently, humidity and its effects differ greatly from place to place. The other options contradict the water cycle, so option D is correct.
