🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between high pressure and low pressure systems in meteorology • What the terms doldrums and trade winds actually describe • The meaning of fronts (cold, warm, occluded) versus pressure areas

💭 Think About

• Which option clearly refers to an area where the pressure at the center is higher than the surrounding regions? • Are any of the choices describing wind patterns or calm belts rather than the pressure center itself? • Which term is commonly connected with fair, settled weather caused by sinking air in a high-pressure system?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices are wind patterns (not pressure centers) • Identify which choice talks about fronts, which are boundaries, not centers of higher pressure • Confirm which answer choice explicitly includes the phrase or idea of a high pressure area
