click the blue words to correct the statement below.
air mass a was cooler and more humid than air mass b.

Explanation:

Looking at the specific humidity map, region B (the circled area) has the darkest green, representing the highest specific humidity (22-24 g/kg), while the northern (higher latitude) regions (where air mass A would be) have purple/lighter colors, meaning lower humidity. Higher latitudes also have cooler air, so air mass A is cooler but less humid than B. The incorrect parts of the statement are "more humid" which needs to be changed to "less humid".

Answer:

Air mass A was cooler and less humid than air mass B.
