                                                                Let us master about :
                                                                Let us master about :
                                                                Let us master about :
                                                              The importance of air for all living things.
                                                              All living things need air to stay alive.



                Air  is  present  all  around  us.  All  living
            things  need  air  to  breathe.  Air  cannot  be

            seen or touched but it can be felt when it
            moves. When you swing, run very fast you

            can feel the air move against your face.

            What does air contain?

                Water of seas, ponds, rivers and lakes gets warm
            up due to the heat of the Sun. This water changes

            into water vapour and mixes with air.
                Water  from  wet  clothes  also  changes  into  water

            vapour.
                Thus, air contains water vapour.                                             Clothes drying under

                                                                                                    the Sun.
                          WOW!


                       The air in the Earth's atmosphere is made up of approximately 78 per cent
                       nitrogen and 21 per cent oxygen.
