Seafloor spreading is caused by diverging plates.

Seafloor spreading is a process in which tectonic plates (large irregularly shaped slabs of solid rock that is usually made up of both continental and oceanic lithosphere) move and separate apart from each other. Seafloor spreading is the result of mantle convection and it takes place at mid-ocean ridges, where there is formation of new oceanic crust through volcanic activity.

Arrange these steps in hurricane formation in order from first to last
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

From first to last, step wise is given below-

Tropical disturbance < Topical depression < Tropical storm < Wind speed above 74 miles per hour

Explanation:

In order to form a hurricane, at first, the disturbances occur in the tropical region, which is characterized by the occurrence of heavy storm activity over a large area extending 100 miles, that exist for about 24 hours.

Then, with the more favorable conditions, the disturbances alter into stronger storms that spin forming a low-pressure center, and this condition refers to the tropical depression. The required amount of humidity is present in both the upper and lower portion of the atmosphere.

The pressure within the center of the tropical depression eventually gets down, and the air flows inward, thereby forming more stronger winds. With more decreasing pressure, the wind speed drastically increases.  Thus, the storm becomes stronger.

When the speed of the wind becomes 74 mph or exceeds, then this type of storm is called a hurricane.
