The orange parts of the map below represent areas in which hurricanes frequently form. The white arrows show the typical Paths of hurricanes why are hurricanes so frequently. In areas close to the equator?

Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

A. There is less landmass near the Equator.

B. The winds blow in opposite directions above and below the Equator.

C. The ocean water can evaporate more quickly near the Equator.

D. There is more wind near the Equator.

C. The ocean water can evaporate more quickly near the Equator.

Explanation:

For hurricanes to form, some specific atmospheric conditions are needed. Among these conditions one of the most important is hot and humid air. Esssa is a common condition in areas close to the equator because of the rapid evaporation of ocean water in this region, which, as already mentioned, facilitates the formation of hurricanes. This hot air is able to rise creating a low pressure area that begins to interact with other atmospheric elements creating a system of winds that begin to move in a circular direction, created by the evaporation of water, creating the hurricane.
