Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cyclones are low pressure cells, while anticyclones are high pressure cells. Choice A is incorrect because high pressure is associated with descending, diverging air movements. Choice C is incorrect because high pressure cells are associated with anticyclonic circulation. Choice D is incorrect because anticyclones are associated with subtropical pressure cells. Choice E is incorrect because cyclones are not associated with polar high pressure cells, but with mid-latitude (or extratropical) low pressure systems.
