Answer to Question 1

Answer: A temperature inversion is the condition occurring when the upper regions of the air (or atmosphere) are warmer than the lower regions. The air above acts like a blanket on the air below and does not allow the air to mix. A temperature inversion traps smog and other thermal pollutants.
