Statement: 1-"The process by which water enters the atmosphere on heating is known as evaporation." 2-"The process by which it again forms water dropletes on cooling is known as condensation. 3-" The process by which the droplets fall to ground in liquid, solid or frozen form is known as precipitation. 4 "The amount of water vapour present in air is called Humidity The correct answer is

Read the statement: "Air is made up of 78% of nitrogen and 21% of oxygen. In remaining 1% is carbon dioxide, hydrogen and other inert gases. Carbon dioxide is very important because of its ability to absord heat. Its presence in air allows the layers of atmosphere to be warmed by sun heat and by the radiation from the earth's surface. Carbon dioxide thus plays very important role in maintaining GREEN HOUSE EFFECT" This statement is :
