Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The transition zone between two air masses with sharply contrasting properties is known as a front. It is marked on weather maps as a line with various symbols indicating the type of front (cold, warm, stationary, etc.). Option A is incorrect because "H" stands for high pressure and "L" stands for low pressure, both of which are not specific to air mass boundaries. Option B is incorrect because "air mass weather" is a general term that describes the weather conditions associated with a particular air mass, not the boundary between two air masses.
