Why is water vapour considered important from both thermal and hydrological viewpoints?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it is linked with heat retention and precipitation formation
The governing concept is water vapour’s dual role in the energy cycle and the hydrological cycle. It is a greenhouse gas that absorbs outgoing longwave radiation and helps retain heat. At the same time, cooling causes water vapour to condense into cloud droplets or ice crystals, leading eventually to precipitation. Thus B correctly combines both viewpoints. It is not limited to respiration, is not the main source of nitrogen, and is variable rather than more permanent than argon.
