help plz
For connexus
1. California
2. The earthquake was caused by planet moving together. It released a lot of energy but observers do not see much damage
3. Respirators and Face shields
4. People should remain inside and close all doors and windows
5. Well-built framed homes could have major damage or removal of roof gable ends
6.a Doppler radar
7. Provide as early a warning as possible to people living in the path of a hurricane
8. Reserves in lakes levels continue to drop significantly
9. A controlled burn removes Dead vegetation that might otherwise help wildfires start and spread
10.ensure people do not have unintended cooking fires While camping.
Good luck on 11 and 12 I can’t help you there.

Answer for Unit 2B & 3B Test Review - Weather and Natural Hazards 6th grade Semester B
1. Skies are often clear above the eye of a hurricane and are actually the calmest section of any hurricane.
Answer: True
2. Warmer ocean water _______ create more powerful hurricanes due to increased evaporation.
Answer: can
3. Looking at the map below shows where hurricanes are likely to form because more hurricanes form over tropical oceans than over colder oceans. Which of the following best explains this observation?
Answer: Air has more moisture over tropical oceans than over cold oceans.
4. The energy that powers a hurricane originates from warm moist air…remember the water has to be at least ______ degrees Fahrenheit.
Answer: 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
5. The graph below shows the relationship between the surface temperature of the sea and the intensity of a hurricane.
Which BEST describes the relationship shown in the graph?
Answer: Warmer ocean water can create more powerful hurricanes due to increased evaporation.
6. Thunderstorms are most likely to form when a warm, humid air mass collides with a dry cold air mass.
Answer: True
7. A ________________front is when two air masses meet, and neither can push the other out.
Answer: Stationary
8. When do tornadoes usually occur?
Answer: Spring and Summer
9. When a polar air mass from Canada meets a maritime air mass from the Gulf of Mexico, The cold and dry air from Canada meets with the warm and wet air from the Gulf of Mexico to cause tornadoes.
Answer: True
10. Refer to the weather map below. Which of the following best explains the formation of Tornado Alley in the Central United States?
Answer: Air Mass A is cold, dry air. Air Mass B is warm, humid air. When these two air masses meet, the cold air mass pushes the warm air mass rapidly upward, leading to extreme weather patterns such as tornadoes.
11. Weather fronts separate air masses of ___________densities.
Answer: different
12. An air mass is a ______ body of air that is _________ uniform in characteristics such as temperature and humidity.
Answer: Large ; horizontal
13. An area of ________ pressure or a high-pressure system typically causes the weather to be sunny and clear.
Answer: High
14. As the air cools, density increases, and pressure increases.
Answer: True
15. Thunderstorms form when a cold, dry air mass collides with a warm, humid air mass over flat land, and warm air is forced upward, causing a powerful updraft; as the air rises, it cools and condenses, creating a powerful downdraft.
Answer: True
16. An area of high pressure will most likely result in clear weather,
Answer: True
17. Look at the line graph below. Which statement is a good match to the line graph?
Answer: The ability of air to hold moisture increases as temperature increases.
18. Where is a tornado most likely to form?
Answer: The Great Plains of central United States
19. Which statement BEST describe the differences between weather and climate?
Answer: Weather is short term while climate is long term.
20. Where does the energy that powers a hurricane originate?
Answer: From warm moist air
