The correct answer is c. More total rainfall from a slower moving storm.
When the the forward speed of the hurricanes and tropical storms slows down they tend to increase the rainfall. Because of the slow movement the storm can be for few days over a given region and produce rainfall without stopping, thus create major flooding, pilling up of the coastal water, and produce persistent strong winds even though they have decreased in their forward speed.

satela [25.4K]
The use of mechanized farming techniques is well suited to geographic areas that c. have large expanses of flat land. Regions such as the Canadian Prairies is a large expanse of flat land and as such easily supports mechanization in planting crops such as wheat. Mechanization in agriculture would be hampered in areas that experience frequent flooding as equipment could get stuck in mud or suffer other water damage.

24. Palm trees and subtropical plants are commonplace in Land's End, England, whose latitude is the equivalent of Labrador in co
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

B) Regions such as Labrador are actually colder than England because colder Arctic water flows down to eastern North America and warm water from the equator flows to England

Explanation:

Even though Labrador and England are roughly on the same latitude, the climates in these two places are very different. The reason for this is the influence of the ocean currents on the climate. Labrador is influenced by dry and cold ocean currents, bringing in very cold weather conditions and harsh cold winds, thus not providing conditions for the growth of palm trees. On the other side of the Atlantic, England is influenced by warm and wet ocean current, the Gulf Stream. This brings in relatively small fluctuations in the temperature, with both the summer and the winter being mild and without extreme temperatures. Also, it brings in a lot of precipitation, so the palm trees manage to survive with only slight adaptations.
