FAQs on Important Questions for CBSE Class 7 Science Chapter 7 - Weather, Climate and Adaptations of Animals to Climate (Not in Current Syllabus)
Q1. Define Weather according to Chapter 7 of Class 7 Science.
Earth is surrounded by a blanket of gases known as the atmosphere. Weather and climate are the elements of the atmosphere. Weather is the atmospheric conditions of a place at a particular point in time. Factors such as humidity, temperature, pressure, wind, clouds, and rainfall affect the weather of a place. The weather of a region can change within a day, within weeks, or months. Weather represents temporary atmospheric conditions of a region.
Q2. What is the difference between weather and climate according to Chapter 7 of Class 7 Science?
Climate refers to the average condition of the atmosphere at a particular place experienced over a long period of time such as 20 or 30 years. Weather, on the other hand, implies the atmospheric conditions of a place at a particular time. The subject matter of both differs. The subject matter of weather is meteorology and the subject matter of climate is climatology. The major difference between them lies in the duration- the weather is estimated over a relatively shorter period of time.
Q3. How do clouds form as discussed in Chapter 7 of Class 7 Science?
Clouds are formed through the process of convection. The rays of the sun heat the ground and the air lying above the surface also gets heated up. The warmer air is lighter and thus rises up in the atmosphere. As the air rises, the temperature starts to fall. It causes the water vapour in the air to condense into small water droplets. Clouds are the accumulation of water droplets that when becomes too heavy to float in the atmosphere leads to precipitation.
Q4. What is Chapter 7 of Class 7 Science textbook about?
The chapter talks about the elements of the atmosphere- weather and climate. The chapter also describes how animals adapt themselves to the climate of their habitats or to better survive the changes in the climate and weather. You will also understand the process of the formation of clouds and precipitation. The chapter will also enable you to develop a basic understanding of polar regions, tropical rainforests, and temperate grasslands
