    Canada recivies?

    • Cold air

    • Hot water

    • Cold Water

    • Mexican Water

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Cold air
    Explanation
    Canada receives cold air because it is located in the northern part of North America and experiences a predominantly cold climate. The country is known for its long and harsh winters, with temperatures dropping significantly below freezing. This is due to its high latitude and proximity to the Arctic region, which allows cold air masses to move southward into Canada. Additionally, Canada's extensive landmass and diverse topography contribute to variations in temperature across different regions of the country.

    • Ice crystal

    • Frozen Water

    • None of these

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Ice crystal
    A. Frozen Water
    Explanation
    Snow is formed when water vapor in the atmosphere freezes into ice crystals. These ice crystals then come together to form snowflakes. Therefore, snow can be described as ice crystals or frozen water. "Cold Cloud Droplet" and "Cold Water" are incorrect because snow is not in the form of droplets or liquid water. "None of these" is also incorrect as snow is a form of frozen water.

    • All of these

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Water
    A. Slush
    Explanation
    When snow turns to water, it melts and changes its form from solid to liquid. However, when snow turns to slush, it partially melts and becomes a mixture of water and ice. Therefore, the correct answer is water and slush, as both of these options accurately describe the different stages of snow melting.
