Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Upper level divergence causes air to rise, while lower level convergence brings air towards the surface, creating upward vertical motions. This destabilizes the atmosphere and creates the necessary conditions for strong storm systems. Therefore, all of the given choices are correct.
