Match the column I with column II. Column I Column II (a) Weather cock (i) Gases and fine dust particles (b) Mountaineers (ii) Sailing yacht (c) Fine hair inside the nose (iii) Oxygen cylinders (d) Smoke (iv) Direction of air flow (e) Wind (v) Prevent dust particles

a. Weather cock shows the direction in which the air is moving at that place. It has two ends, one end is arrow-shaped and turns towards the wind and another end that is wider to catch the breeze. b. In high altitude, the amount of air is low, so the mountaineers carry the oxygen cylinders. c. Fine hair inside the nose filters the air and prevents dust particles from entering the respiratory tract. d. Smoke contains harmful gases such as carbon monoxide and other dust particles. e. Wind helps in the movement of sailing yacht. Wind is produced by the uneven heating of the earth's surface by the sun.

Match the Column I with Column II. Column I Column II (a) Nitrogen (i) 0 . 03 % (b) Oxygen (ii) Protective covering of earth (c) Carbon dioxide (iii) Occupies space (d) Atmosphere (iv) 78 . 1 % (e) Air (v) 20 . 9 %

a. Nitrogen is the major component of the air and composition of nitrogen in air is 78 . 1 % . b. Oxygen is the second major component of the air and its composition in air is 20 . 9 % . c. Carbon dioxide is the least component of air and its composition in air is 0 . 03 % . d. The ozone layer present in the atmosphere prevents the entry of harmful rays into the earth, therefore the atmosphere is known as the protective covering of the earth. e. Air is a mixture of gases and these gases have mass and occupies space.
