How does temperature and precipitation change as you increase in elevation? Temperature gets warmer and precipitation increases. Temperature gets cooler and precipitation increases. Temperature gets warmer and precipitation decreases. Temperature gets cooler and precipitation decreases.

The correct answer is B. Temperature gets cooler and precipitation increases.

Explanation:

In geography and related fields, the elevation refers to the location of a specific point in reference to the sea level. Additionally, this factor affects other geographical conditions such as temperature, precipitation, pressure, among others.

In the case of temperature, this always decreases as elevation increases this occurs because at higher elevations the air pressure is lower and this implies a lower temperature as gases decrease its temperature with less pressure. Also, air at higher elevations does not retain or conduct heat as much as in lower elevations. At the same time, a lower temperature implies a colder weather and more precipitation because water vapor rises and condenses faster, which causes rain, snow or similar.

so far i think you have the right thing going for you just remember soh cah toh
