<h2>Answer: Option D</h2><h2 />

Option A, "a large swirling, low-pressure system that forms over the warm Atlantic Ocean"  is incorrect because tornadoes do not form over water. That would be a hurricane.

Option B, "a winter storm with wind speeds of at least 56 km/h and low visibility" Is incorrect because tornadoes do not form in cold weather. That would be a blizzard.

Oa boundary between two air masses of different density, moisture, or temperature​ption C, "a violently rotating column of air in contact with the ground" is correct <u>because tornadoes are columns of air that rotate due to warm air and cold air colliding.</u> They usually occur during a thunderstorm.

Option D, "a boundary between two air masses of different density, moisture, or temperature​" is incorrect because tornadoes are not based on air mass, density, moisture, or temperature. This would be a front.

What is the main reason so few African leaders are replaced in free elections?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

The main reason so few African leaders are replaced in free elections is because the vast majority of African nations have serious socio-political and economic problems, which generate enormous political instability and serious situations of social tension. Thus, for example, countries like Mali have 75% of their population living on less than 2 dollars a day, while others, like Nigeria, increase this percentage to 92%.

Thus, these situations of poverty, need for primary resources and lack of opportunities generate social conflicts that, translated into politics, are the starting point for revolutions, dictatorships and other anti-democratic manifestations.

What is the connection between cloud formation and precipitation?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Clouds are just lots of drops of water all stuck together. When clouds get so full of water droplets that they can't hold any more, the water falls back to the ground as rain! Sometimes the water droplets freeze and fall to the ground as snow, sleet, or hail. Water or ice that comes from clouds is called precipitation.
