151. Gigantic clouds contains dust and gas in space called _____?

بہت بڑے بادلوں میں خلا میں دھول اور گیس ہوتی ہے جسے _____ کہا جاتا ہے؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Nebula

Explanation A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova.

152. Which gas saves us from the harmful ultraviolet radiations coming from the sun?

کون سی گیس ہمیں سورج سے آنے والی نقصان دہ بالائے بنفشی شعاعوں سے بچاتی ہے؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Ozone

Explanation The ultraviolet rays are filtered through Ozone Layer . The ozone layer , often known as ozone shield is a part of Stratosphere.

153. The rate at which temperature decreases with increasing altitude is known as the ______?

اونچائی بڑھنے پر درجہ حرارت کے کم ہونے کی شرح کو کیا کہتے ہیں؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Lapse rate

Explanation The rate at which temperature decreases with increasing altitude is called the Lapse Rate . Lapse rate helps predict weather patterns, cloud formation, and stability of the atmosphere . Additional information : Dry Lapse Rate: ~ 9.8°C/km (unsaturated air) Moist Lapse Rate: ~ 5–6°C/km (saturated air with condensation) Last verified on 17-01-2026

154. The ozone layer prevents _________ radiation from entering the atmosphere.

اوزون کی تہہ کس تابکاری کو فضا میں داخل ہونے سے روکتی ہے۔

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Ultraviolet

Explanation The ozone layer protects living things from too much ultraviolet from entering the atomsphere Oxygen layer in the atmosphere Ozone protects us from the harmful ultraviolet radiation of the sun. Ozone formula : O3 The ozone layer lies approximately 15-40 kilometers (10-25 miles) above the Earth's surface, in the stratosphere. The ozone layer is depleting : Air pollution

155. Air mass moves from which pressure region?

ہوا کا حجم کس دباؤ والے علاقے سے حرکت کرتا ہے؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: High pressure to low pressure

Explanation Air always moves from regions of high pressure to low pre ssure. This movement creates win d and drives weather patterns. The greater the pressure difference, the stronger the wind. High-pressure areas are usually associated with clear skies. Low-pressure areas often brin g clouds and precipitation.

156. Less dew is formed on cloudy nights because of

Check answer and explanation

Answer: in cloudy nights the radiation takes place very slowly

Explanation Radiation is very slow on cloudy nights , resulting in less condensation on cloudy nights. On cloudy nights, the clouds are thick and trap heat and water vapor in the clouds, resulting in very slow radiation. This all shows why dew levels drop on cloudy nights.

157. Which element is NOT abundant in the Earth's crust?

کون سا عنصر زمین کی پرت میں وافر نہیں ہے؟

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Phosphorus

Explanation Phosphorus is not among the top 10 most abundant elements in the Earth's crust . Most abundant element in Earth crust is Oxygen. Oxygen in the crust is (46. 1%). The chemical formula of oxygen (dioxygen) is O 2 . **************** List of 10 Most Abundant Elements in the Earth's Crust Sr# Element Abundance percent by weight 1 Oxygen 46.10% 2 Silicon 28.20% 3 Aluminum 8.23% 4 Iron 5.63% 5 Calcium 4.15% 6 Sodium 2.36% 7 Magnesium 2.33% 8 Potassium 2.09% 9 Titanium 0.57% 10 Hydrogen 0.14% SH10-8-2023
