Which process produces rising air when mountains push the air upward?
a. orographic lifting
b. localized convective lifting
c. frontal wedging
d. convergence

Answer;

A. orographic lifting

Explanation;

Orographic lifting is a process that takes place when an air mass is forced from a low elevation to a higher elevation as it moves over rising terrain.

This can be explained by;  When air is blocked by mountains, it cannot go through these mountains, As it ascends or moves up the mountain, the air then cools as it rises and when it cools to its saturation point, the water vapor condenses and cloud forms.

These clouds formed  are known as orographic clouds, that develop in response to the lifting forced by the topography the earth.

absorption lines are where light has been absorbed by the atom thus you see a dip in the spectrum whereas.

emission spectra have spikes in the spectra due to atoms releasing photons at those wavelengths.

the answer is 12 as i may remember
