b. 500 years
c. 1,000 years
d. 2,000 years

1. which feature characterizes a high - pressure system?

a. counterclockwise air flow
b. unstable weather conditions
c. clockwise and outward air flow

Explanation:

For question 26, the global conveyor - belt circulation of water takes about 1000 years to complete one cycle. For question 27, in a high - pressure system in the Northern Hemisphere, air flows clockwise and outward due to the Coriolis effect.
