Question

which two characteristics are shared by all thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hurricanes?
clouds and wind
eyes and clouds
warm, dry air and wind
large waves and warm, dry air

Explanation:

• "Eyes" are unique to hurricanes, so the second option is invalid.
• Thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hurricanes rely on warm, moist (not dry) air, so the third and fourth options are incorrect.
• All three weather phenomena form with clouds (for storm development) and produce strong wind.

Answer:

A. clouds and wind
