1. (3 points) Climate and Weather: a. Are the same thing; b. Are different. Climate is related to average temperatures, pressures, precipitation etc. over long periods of time, while weather is the condition of those same elements over short periods of time; c. Are different. Weather is related to average temperatures, pressures, precipitation etc. over long periods of time, while Climate is the condition of those same elements over short periods of time; d. Are different. Climate is related ONLY to average temperatures over long periods of time, while weather is related ONLY to average temperatures over periods up to two weeks; e. Are different. Climate is related ONLY to average precipitations over long periods of time, while weather is related ONLY to average precipitations over periods up to two weeks;
