Answer to Question 1

Answer: Dry air descends to the surface, the air is too cold to hold moisture, mountains block moist air from oceans, or moist ocean air moves away from land.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The Coriolis effect shifts moving objects to the right of their initial path in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere.
