Question
winds, whether on a global or local scale, always blow from areas of __
high humidity to low that are dry and less humid
high temperature to low temperature
high pressure to those of low
low pressure to those of high
Wind is the movement of air, and air moves from regions of high pressure to regions of low pressure. This is a fundamental concept in meteorology (a subfield of Natural Science, specifically Geography or Atmospheric Science). Humidity and temperature gradients are not the primary drivers of wind direction on either global or local scales in the way described in the other options. The correct principle is that wind blows from high - pressure areas to low - pressure areas.
