Answer:

Longwave ridges = Global scale

High pressure system persists over the central plains for 4 days = Synoptic scale

Supercell thunderstorm that lasts for over an hour = mesoscale

A turbulent eddy = microscale

Step-by-step explanation:

Global scale has a range of the entire earth

synoptic scale has a range of about 100-1000km and can last fro days to weeks

mesoscale has a range of 4-100km and lasts for a day maximum

microscale is the least of all atmospheric motions.
