🔍 Key Concepts

• Tropical cyclones vs extratropical systems and how they get their energy • What happens to a hurricane’s warm core when it moves over cold water or land • Differences between typhoons, easterly waves, and low/high pressure systems

💭 Think About

• Think about whether the storm is still a tropical system once it has lost its tropical characteristics • Ask yourself which option describes a system that has changed into a different type of low-pressure storm at higher latitudes • Consider which terms are simply regional names for the same kind of tropical cyclone, and which describe a different stage or structure

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option specifically refers to a low-pressure system that forms outside the tropics • Check which choices are just names for tropical systems rather than something that has lost its tropical structure • Confirm that the correct term still describes a storm with fronts and interaction with colder air masses, rather than a warm-core tropical cyclone
