select the correct answer.
choose the phrase that best completes the sentence below.
cuando rota violentamente en su propio eje, ______ puede destruir casas y otros edificios.
a. el huracán
b. la tormenta
c. el tornado
d. la nevada
reset
next

Explanation:

The sentence is about a weather phenomenon that rotates violently on its own axis and can destroy houses and buildings. A tornado (el tornado) is a weather event that rotates violently and causes such destruction. A hurricane (el huracán) is a large storm system but the description here matches a tornado better. "La tormenta" (the storm) is too general, and "la nevada" (the blizzard) is a snowstorm which doesn't rotate violently to destroy buildings in the same way. So the correct option is C.

Answer:

C. el tornado
