Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 only

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> A long winter night with clear skies and still air is ideal situation for inversion. The heat of the day is radiated off during the night, and by early morning hours, the earth is cooler than the air above. Over polar areas, temperature inversion is normal throughout the year.
