¿Por qué hay huracanes?

The video explains how hurricanes form due to pressure differences and the Coriolis effect, which causes their spiral shape. It discusses the impact of climate change on hurricane frequency and intensity, highlighting the role of greenhouse gases. The video also covers hurricane preparedness tips and explains different names for hurricanes in various regions.

What is the primary cause of wind movement that leads to hurricane formation?

• Earth's rotation

• Humidity levels

• Pressure differences

• Temperature differences

How does the Coriolis effect influence the movement of air in a hurricane?

• It causes air to move directly towards the center

• It has no effect on air movement

• It makes air move in a straight line

• It causes air to move diagonally, creating a spiral

What is one of the greatest dangers associated with hurricanes?

• Storm surges

• High temperatures

• Tornadoes

• Earthquakes

How does climate change affect hurricanes?

• It only affects their direction

• It increases their frequency and intensity

• It has no effect

• It decreases their frequency

What is a recommended safety measure to prepare for a hurricane?

• Avoid making any plans

• Ignore weather warnings

• Reinforce doors and windows

• Leave all windows open
