In order to answer this question correctly, we need to be able to decipher between the different clouds in the answer choices:

Altostratus clouds are found in the mid-level of the sky and made of ice crystals and water. Stratus clouds are typically gray and usually cover the entire sky.

Stratus clouds are low in the sky and look similar to fog that doesn't touch the ground, but does cover the entire sky.

Cumulus clouds are white, puffy clouds. They resemble cotton balls in the sky.

Cirrus clouds are high in the sky and made of ice. These clouds look very thin and wispy.

The correct answer is altostratus clouds.

The correct graph has to match the values from the data table correctly. The graph should only display information from the temperature portion of the graph, but some of them have the information with the rainfall section or the wrong data input.

This is a bar graph and it is a way to display data from a table, experiment, or calculations. This graph represents the average temperature of the four seasons in Kim's hometown. Winter is described as the time of year with the lowest temperatures and very cold. "Season 4" is shown on the graph with the lowest temperatures so this is winter.

This graph is called a bar graph. It is a visual way to represent data from a table or chart. Spring was described as a season with rising temperatures, so it would be warmer than fall and winter. Spring leads up to summer, so it would have lower temperatures than summer. Season 1 is spring because it meets all the criteria described, and when reviewing the graph, it would be the most reasonable response.

August is in summer. It is the hottest season of the year, and August is the hottest month of the year in his hometown. Based on the graph May, June, and July are increasing in temperature to reach a peak in August. It drops off in September as fall begins.

This is a bar graph used to display the average temperatures of Terry's hometown each month in a more clear and easy to understand way. The months of November, December, and January have the lowest temperatures of all the displayed months. Winter has the coldest temperatures of all the seasons, so these months must be winter.

This graph has left out the months of June, July, August, and September. These months fall during the summer. Summer is the warmest season and the least likely to have any snowfall. There is no reason to graph the data if the total inches were zero.

This bar graph depicts the number of tornado reports across the US during 2019. From March until May, there is an uptick in the number of tornado reports. These months fall during the summer. The graph can help make this information easier to read and visually show trends or patterns.

This bar graph provides a visual way for trends and patterns to be seen within complex data. The graph shows how many tornado reports there were each month across the United States. The seasons with the fewest reports were winter and fall. The graph makes it easier to see which months have a higher number of reports and which months have fewer.

This bar graph is a great way to represent complex data and make it easier to visualize trends or patterns. This specific graph represents the number of hail reports each month of 2019. The highest number of reports are during May and into June, which fall during spring. Many places experience thunderstorms and tornadoes in the spring, and hail is a byproduct of those storms.

This bar graph is a great way to represent complex data and make it easier to visualize trends or patterns. This specific graph represents the number of hail reports each month of 2019. The months with the fewest hail reports are November, December, January, and February. These months fall during the fall and winter seasons.

Using data tables are a great way to organize information and compare numbers or facts. Each season has its own positive and negative attributes that are suitable for different activities. For a family trip to the zoo, the weather would need to be comfortable, and there would need to be less chance of rain. The season that would be best for a zoo visit would be the spring because there are moderate temperatures and less of a chance of rain than in the fall or summer. Winter would likely be too cold for an outdoor trip, and summer would be much too warm.

The worst season to visit the beach would be during the winter. There is not much rain which could make for a beautiful beach day, but the temperatures would make it very chilly! The average temperature is 53oF, which means there could be even colder days. Choosing summer or even spring would be a much better choice for a week-long beach trip.

The information presented in the data table breaks down the average temperature per month in the area that Richard lives. When reviewing the descriptions of the four seasons, summer is the hottest month, so the months with the highest temperatures match the description. June, July, and August are the months with the most elevated temperatures; therefore, that is the summer season.

Fall is described as a season with decreasing temperatures as winter approaches. The three months that have decreasing temperatures and are right before winter are September, October, and November. The other months are either too warm, or they are increasing in temperature as they approach summer.

Data tables are a clear way to display information and numbers related to weather and the seasons. The tables organize information for review and make it easier to find the data that someone might be looking for. The data can be used to answer questions, create graphs, and presentations.

The information presented in the data table breaks down the average temperature per month in the area that Antwon is going to be vacationing. When reviewing the temperatures of each month, the best months for a ski trip would be December, January, and February. These months are the coldest of the year and more likely to generate snow based on weather conditions during winter.
