    True. The Coriolis effect is responsible for the rotation of hurricanes, causing them to spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

    True. Wildfires can indeed be caused by natural factors, such as lightning, as well as human activities, including campfires, discarded cigarettes, and other activities that can ignite a fire.

    False. While areas with high humidity generally have a lower risk of wildfires due to the moisture content in the air and vegetation, wildfires can still occur in humid regions under certain conditions, such as prolonged dry spells or droughts. Therefore, the statement is incorrect.

    Here’s the matching of each statement with the correct natural hazard:
1. **Hurricane**
- Form over warm ocean waters
- Can cause storm surges and coastal flooding
2. **Wildfire**
- Often spread rapidly due to dry vegetation and wind
- Can be caused by natural factors or human activity

    The correct term to complete the sentence is **Saffir-Simpson Scale**. 
So the complete sentence would be: **Saffir-Simpson Scale is used to measure the wind speed and potential damage of a hurricane.**

    The correct term to complete the sentence is **Fuel management** or **Forest management**. 
So the complete sentence would be: **Fuel management helps reduce the risk of wildfires by managing vegetation and fuel around homes and forests.**
