On a particular day, denali had a temperature of -23°c at its peak and 13°c at its base. what could be the reason for this temperature difference? a.) temperature increases with an increase in altitude. b.) temperature decreases with an increase in altitude. c.) the base is close to the gulf of alaska. d.) the mountain receives lake-effect snow.

B.) Temperature decreases with an increase in altitude

The higher up you go the colder it gets.

Option (B)

Explanation:

In the layer of troposphere that extends up to a height of about 10 km from the ground surface, the temperature decreases with the increasing height.

The air molecules are very densely and tightly packed near the ground surface, as a result of which the temperature remains significantly high due to absorption of heat energy. But these air molecules are arranged in a scattered manner in the upper portion of this troposphere layer due to which the temperature remains relatively cold.

This is why Denali had experienced a temperature of -23°C at the peak and 13°C at the base.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

the dna of humans and mice is almost 92% similar. this similarity indicates that . mice have a tail, while humans have a tailbone. the tailbone is a structure in humans.yes it's true.
