Question

which of the following causes tornadoes? a. condensation b. dry climates c. wind shear d. stationary fronts

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Tornadoes are caused by wind shear. Wind shear is a change in wind speed and/or direction with height. This creates a rotating column of air near the ground. Condensation is related to cloud formation. Dry climates lack the moisture needed for severe storms like those that produce tornadoes. Stationary fronts are boundaries between air masses that don't move much and are not the direct cause of tornadoes.

Answer:

C. wind shear
