How does the warm air over the ocean contribute to the formation of hurricanes?

Storms which form along the equator travel to cooler ocean waters.

Air and water from the ocean spin to Earth’s rotation and create a spiral effect.

Heat and evaporating water from the ocean surface provide energy for hurricanes.

Ocean waters create high air pressure that builds upward with surrounding cool air.

Jayson heated two beakers. Each beaker held 100 mL of water. The water began to boil. Then Jayson loosely wrapped one of the beakers in five layers of aluminum foil. He left the second beaker unwrapped. He measured the temperatures of the water in the beakers over time and recorded his data in the table.

Which statement BEST explains Jayson’s observations?

Aluminum foil is a good conductor of thermal energy.

The layers of aluminum foil absorbed heat instead of transferring it.

Layers of air between the foil wrappings reduced the transfer of heat.

The warmer atmosphere around the foil-wrapped beaker prevented the transfer of thermal energy.
