The correct answer is option C, that is a runoff.

The water from rain, snowmelt, or other sources is known as surface runoff, it flows over the land surface, and is a prime constituent of the water cycle. Runoff, which takes place on the surfaces prior to reaching a channel is also known as overland flow. When flowing of runoff takes place along the ground, it can pick up soil contaminants like pesticides, petroleum, or fertilizers, which turn into overland or discharged flow.

How can a small change to the temperature of ocean water have a big effect on a tropical depression?

makkiz [27]

Heat waves can be dangerous, causing illnesses such as heat cramps and heat stroke, or even death. Warmer temperatures can also lead to a chain reaction of other changes around the world. That's because increasing air temperature also affects the oceans, weather patterns, snow and ice, and plants and animals.

Michelle drew a simple diagram to show how a hurricane forms. Which location on the diagram indicates a low-pressure area?

inysia [295]

Answer:

"Location 4" indicates a low-pressure area

Explanation:

A low-pressure area is defined as the region in which the pressure in the atmosphere is comparatively lesser than nearby surrounding areas. This region is a depression that is comprised of more winds, warmer air, and lifting of air mass takes place.

In a low-pressure zone, the warm air becomes less dense, due to higher temperature, as a result of which it rises up into the atmosphere. As it rises up into the atmosphere, it eventually cools and condensation starts taking place. After a definite period of time, rainfall occurs.

Thus, in the given image, location 4 shows the low pressure area.
