Hurricane: a type of storm called a tropical cyclone, which forms over tropical or subtropical water.
The ocean water evaporates caused by heat from the sun. The evaporating water forms a cloud of warm, moist air that moves upward. Then, as the warm, moist air rises, more air rushes into replace it.
Hurricanes form near the equator over warm oceans.

Tornado: a mobile, destructive vortex of violently rotating winds having the appearance of a funnel-shaped cloud and advancing beneath a large storm system.
Most tornadoes form from thunderstorms. You need warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and cool, dry air from Canada.

Explain why do we redraw voting boundaries every 10 years
Andrews [41]

Redistricting is the process by which new congressional and state legislative district boundaries are drawn. All United States Representatives and state legislators are elected from political divisions called districts. District lines are redrawn every 10 years following completion of the United States census. The federal government stipulates that districts must have nearly equal populations and must not discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity.[1]

See the sections below for further information on the following topics:

Background: This section summarizes federal requirements for redistricting at both the congressional and state legislative levels. In addition, recent court decisions affecting redistricting policy are summarized.

Methods: This section provides details about the various redistricting processes used in the states.

Competitiveness: This section summarizes some of the arguments about the impact of redistricting on electoral competitiveness. Margin-of-victory and competitiveness data for congressional and state legislative elections is provided for informational purposes.

Majority-minority districts: This section summarizes the legal basis for the creation of majority-minority districts and details some of the arguments surrounding the practice.

Acidic water containing chemicals and heavy metals from an abandoned coal mine has washed into a nearby river. All of the follow
Romashka [77]

Answer: An erosion of soil which enters waterways

Explanation:

Acidic water is more poisonous to human, animal and plant life so if acidic water were to wash into a river that humans drink, the health risks posed to those humans would increase.

If there were plants and animals connected to the river, the risks to them would increase as well and disrupt their life cycle.

Acidic water does not make water more or less capable of soil erosion so the water being acidic would not contribute to soil erosion.
