Of all the potential causes of destruction created by hurricanes, storm surges produce a. the greatest threat to loss of life b. no real threat to people or cities c. the only valid threat to structural damage d. the smallest threat damages faced on land

D. the smallest threat damages faced on land

Explanation:

Hurricanes in the open sea cause intense waves, rains and winds, damaging the international navigation and, sometimes, causing shipwrecks. On land, the major cause of hurricane destruction is the strong winds that can damage or destroy vehicles, buildings, bridges, and other objects, turning loose debris into possibly deadly flying projectiles. Storm surge, or rising sea level due to the presence of the hurricane, is typically the worst effect in the open sea. The biggest threat a hurricane causes on land is the presence of strong winds that generate tornadoes that can cause further destruction. Storms caused by hurricanes also cause great destruction, but compared to the strong winds they offer a lesser threat.
