Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy clouds composed of ice crystals. At what elevation to cirrus clouds form?

70% Answer Correctly

	mid-altitude
	low-altitude
	high-altitude
	ground level

Solution

Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy high-altitude clouds composed of ice crystals that originate from the freezing of supercooled water droplets. Cirrus clouds generally occur in fair weather and point in the direction of air movement at their elevation.

An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.

82% Answer Correctly

	solid
	plasma
	liquid
	gas

Solution

In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
