Which statement about tornadoes is correct? a. they are a very common part of thunderstorms. b. seventy-five percent of the world’s tornadoes occur in the united states. c. their danger is mainly from the heavy rains they bring. d. they are the strongest storms on earth.

As strange as it may seem, around 75% world’s tornadoes

occur in the United States. It's actually because of the unique

geography of North America, and how the winds and storms

get funneled up through the US. (choice-b)

It's true that when there's a tornado, it usually comes along with a thunderstorm. But tornadoes are way way LESS common than thunderstorms.

Their main danger is from the high winds in the center of the funnel.

The rain is minor compared to the wind damage.

Tornadoes are not really the strongest storms on Earth.

Welll ... I guess that could depend on what "strong storm" means.

Sure, a tornado is incredibly vicious and powerful. But it's only a few

miles wide, and it only lasts for a few hours and then it's all over.

The tropical cyclones ... hurricanes, monsoons, typhoons ... don't have

winds as fast as tornadoes, but they can be a thousand miles wide and

last for weeks.
