1.2.5. B
1.2.6. C
1.2.7. E (7 x 1) (7)
1.3.
1.3.1. Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the earth’s
atmosphere (2) (1 x 2) (2)
1.3.2. Deforestation (1)
Industries that burn fossil fuels (1)
Cars (1)
Chlorofluorocarbon (1) [ANY TWO] (2 x 1) (2)
1.3.4. Trees remove CO₂ from the atmosphere during photosynthesis (2)
Deforestation increase the amount of CO₂ in the atmosphere (2)
When trees are cut down their stored CO₂ is released into the atmosphere (2)
CO₂ is a greenhouse gas that absorbs Earths heat and prevent it from
escaping into space (2) [ANY TWO] (2 x 2) (4)
1.3.5. Rewards and incentives for reducing carbon emissions (2)
Carbon taxes (2)
Recycling, as manufacturing new products emits more greenhouse gases(2)
Using of environmentally friendly sources of energy e.g. solar power, wind
power etc. (2)
Planting more trees and conserving forest (2)
Educating people on ways to reduce their carbon footprint (2)
Use of public transport (2) [ANY THREE] (3 x 2) (6)
1.4.
1.4.1 Relief rain (1)
Orographic rain (1) [ANY ONE] (1 x 1) (1)
1.4.2 Western Cape (1) (1 x 1) (1)
1.4.3 C (1) (1 x 1) (1)
1.4.4 As most of the moisture has fallen on the windward side of the mountain,
there not much moisture left for cloud formation on the leeward side of the
mountain therefore the rain falls on the side where clouds are formed.
(1 x 2) (2)
1.4.5 Temperature increases with the decrease in height (2)
Air compresses as move down the slope and temperature increase (2)
Adiabatic heating (2) [ANY ONE] (1 x 2) (2)
1.4.6 Relief rain forms when a warm, moist wind blows off the ocean onto the
mountain. (2)
The wind forces to rise.(2)
The rising air cools and the water in it condenses to form clouds.(2)
This results in rain falling on the side of the mountain faces the ocean.(2)
The dried air rushed down the other side of the mountain range.(2)
The warm, dry air coming off the mountains continues to pull moisture out
the land.(2) (4 x 2) (8)
1.5.
1.5.1 Isobars are lines on a weather map joining places of equal atmospheric
pressure.(2) (2 x 1) (2)
1.5.2 4 hpa/mb (1) (1 x 1) (1)
1.5.3 Highest values are in the centre (1)
Values are increasing towards the centre (1) (1 x 1) (1)
1.5.4 Cold front (1) (1 x 1) (1)
1.5.5 (a) Winter (1)
(b) Cold front have migrated inland (2)
Cloud cover is clear (2)
[ANY TWO] (2 x 1) (2)
1.5.6 (a) 16°C (1)
(b) South West (1)
(c) Fully over cast (1)
(d) 20 knots (1)
(e) None (1) (5 x 1) (5)
1.5.7 Isobars are closer together at Y/ Isobars are further apart at X (2)
Pressure gradient is steeper at Y/ pressure gradient is weaker at X (2)
(1 x 2) (2)
TOTAL MARK: 60
