Answer to Question 1

Answer: Air converges into a cyclone and this causes upward vertical motion. As air rises, it cools, forming clouds and precipitation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Sea-level pressure is the pressure that would exist if the observation point were at sea level. Sea-level pressure allows us to compare pressure at different locations, taking into account differences in elevation.
