<span>Mercury has 0.0553 earth's mass and has no natural satellite. It
is the planet closest to the sun and also the smallest, its surface is
rocky and solid like the earth, has a diameter of 4879 km and is formed
mainly of metal elements. <span>Its orbit around the sun is 88 days and its temperatures are extremely high due to its proximity to the sun.

Explosions from composite volcanoes occur as a result of gas buildup within them. Shield volcanoes also may erupt explosively if water accumulates inside their vents.

Explanation:
From the political map of a continent, we learn on <u>countries</u> and <u>cities</u> within such countries, especially in <u>capitol cities</u>. In this case, we may learn from continents:
(i) The name, location and geographical extension of every country within the continent on map.
(ii) The name and location of most important city in every country within the continent on map.
Answer:
Hurricanes need a lot of heat to form, which is why they usually occur over tropical seas (at least 26°C).
The sun is close to the equator, providing energy to heat the ocean.
The warm ocean heats the air above it causing it to rise rapidly.
Water evaporates quickly from the hot surface of the ocean, so the rising air contains great amounts of water vapour.
The rising air starts to spin (anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere)
The centre of the storm - the eye - is calm.
As the air rises it cools, condenses and forms towering cumulonimbus clouds.
The rapidly rising air creates an area of intense low pressure. The low pressure sucks in air, causing very strong winds.
Once the storm moves over land it starts to lose energy and fades.
