Answer:

Hurricanes need a lot of heat to form, which is why they usually occur over tropical seas (at least 26°C).

The sun is close to the equator, providing energy to heat the ocean.

The warm ocean heats the air above it causing it to rise rapidly.

Water evaporates quickly from the hot surface of the ocean, so the rising air contains great amounts of water vapour.

The rising air starts to spin (anti-clockwise in the northern hemisphere)

The centre of the storm - the eye - is calm.

As the air rises it cools, condenses and forms towering cumulonimbus clouds.

The rapidly rising air creates an area of intense low pressure. The low pressure sucks in air, causing very strong winds.

Once the storm moves over land it starts to lose energy and fades.

Climate affects human culture and human behaviors. What do low-latitude climate zones have in common with each other? Describe t
trasher [3.6K]
I think the common between low-latitude countries would be people's skin color and  If you compare the Philippines and its neighboring countries, they have more or less similar physical attributes. Typical Filipinos looked similar with Indonesians.

For Southeast Asia, i would also consider religion is common between the two. Both the Philippines and the other Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, they have a large number of Muslim settlers while other tropical countries in South America, these countries have similar Spanish ancestry just like the Philippines.

What landform provides the trees/lumber that is used to power Quebec and Ontario’s economy?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The landform that provides the trees/lumber that is used to power Quebec and Ontario's economy is the Canadian Shield.

Explanation:

Quebec and Ontario are Canadian provinces. They are the top two or close to the top in pretty much every department in Canada. They have a lot of natural resources, they have the highest populations, their economies are the most developed, etc. One natural resource that is extremely important for the economy of these two is the lumber or rather the forests.

The Canadian Shield, which is the most dominant landform in Canada, occupies almost all of the territories of these two provinces. It is the landform that actually provides all of the trees/lumber. The forests are boreal, and the majority of them made up of coniferous trees, though in the southern parts there are multiple species of trees that are deciduous, like Canada's trademark tree - the maple, which is also a tree that brings in a lot of profit to these provinces and the country as a whole.
