Answer to Question 1

Cyclogenesis: Disturbance develops along the polar front or other areas; warm air converges near the surface and begins to rise, creating instability.
Open stage: Cyclonic, counterclockwise flow pulls warm, moist air into the low pressure center, while cold air advances.
Occluded stage: The faster-moving cold front overtakes the slower warm front and wedges beneath it. Warm air is pushed upward, leading to precipitation.
Dissolving stage: When the cold air mass completely cuts off the warm air from its source of energy, the midlatitude cyclone dissolves.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
