Question

We also learn that for a tropical disturbance to become a full hurricane it must have all of the following EXCEPT:

*
1 point
Warm ocean waters
High humidity in the Atmosphere
Winds over 74 mph
High pressure in its center of the Eye

Answer 1

For a tropical disturbance to become a full hurricane, it must have all of the following EXCEPT:

**Winds over 74 mph.**

This is because a tropical disturbance becomes a tropical depression initially, then a tropical storm, and only after reaching sustained winds of 74 mph or higher does it officially become a hurricane. Therefore, this option isn’t a prerequisite for development; it's the condition that defines a hurricane.
