question 4 of 20
a hurricane is most likely to form:
a. in january near the equator.
b. in may in the northeast united states.
c. in september near the equator.
d. in september in the northeast united states.

Explanation:

Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters near the equator. The hurricane - season in the Atlantic typically runs from June 1 to November 30, with peak activity in September. The northeast United States is not a location where hurricanes form (they may make landfall there). Near - equatorial regions provide the warm water and atmospheric conditions needed for hurricane formation.

Answer:

C. in September near the equator.
