The circulation of warm and cold matter is called...

• Convection

• Wind

• Evaporates

• Rises

Which of the following factors contributes most to formation of hurricanes?

Most of the water vapor in the atmosphere comes from evaporation of water from oceans. Most of this evaporation occurs where there is the greatest solar radiation, which is -

• along the coast of Europe.

• around islands in the Pacific.

• near the Equator.

• at both of the poles.
