This document is a science assessment for 7th grade students covering topics about the atmosphere and weather. It contains 20 multiple choice questions testing students' knowledge of the layers of the atmosphere, temperature changes with altitude, greenhouse effect, monsoons, trade winds, and the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). The questions cover definitions, properties, and interactions between different components of the atmosphere and how they influence weather patterns.
