The way to tell them apart from each other lies in the speed of the wind. When the speed of the wind is between 39 mph to 73 mph, the tropical depression developed (low pressured areas in the ocean that have the power to grow stronger) is classified as a tropical storm.  Hurricanes are more intense and are formed over oceans with the wind speed reaching at least 74 mph.  Hurricanes also have a noticeable eye in the center of the storm and tropical storms don't have any at all. Basically, a hurricane is a more intense version of a tropical storm that appear to be smaller compared to a tropical storm.

Hope I answered this correctly and hope it helps! :)

Answer:

Increased pollination rates of surrounding crop plants as a result of local beekeeping.

Explanation:

A positive externality arises when the production or consumption of a finished product or service has a significant impact or benefits to a third party that isn't directly involved in the transaction.

A negative externality arises when the production or consumption of a finished product or service has negative impact (cost) on a third party.

Coase theorem was developed in 1960 by a British economist and author named Ronald Coase.

Coase theorem states that when the actions of a party (X) negatively affects or harm another party (Y), then party Y should be able to create an incentive for party X to stop or limit the action creating such harm.

Generally, when transaction cost are low, the two parties are able to bargain and reach a mutual agreement in the presence of an externality such as a pollution.
