Answer 2

1) The boundary that separates different air masses is called a Front.

2) Along which type of front is the intensity of precipitation generally heavy, but short-lived? Cold front.

3) What kind of shape is associated with a middle-latitude cyclone? Wave.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Front is the name given to the contact zone between two air masses. When a warm air mass meets a cold air mass, cold fronts or warm fronts may form, depending on the conditions.
• On cold fronts, the boundaries between the warm and cold air masses are steep, which causes the warm air mass to rise rapidly and thus heavy precipitation usually occurs, but the rain ceases rapidly and the air becomes cold and dry soon after.
• Middle lattitude cyclones, also called extratropical cyclones or wave cyclones, can be defined as low atmospheric pressure systems that occur in middle-latitude regions. A middle-latitude cyclone develops through temperature gradients and dew points, and is therefore associated with waves.
