Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Although condensation and evaporation are important in powering these storms, the storms require
warm water underneath them to keep energy available. Also, it needs to have a ready source of hot,
humid air. Information can be found in the section Storms Are Variations in Large-Scale Atmospheric
CirculationANS: B
