A cyclone is a general term for a weather system in which winds rotate inwardly to an area of low atmospheric pressure. Cyclones are caused by atmospheric disturbances around a low-pressure area distinguished by swift and often disruptive air circulation. The circulation of air is anti-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere because of the Coriolis Effect. Research on What are pressure belts What is Coriolis Effect How does the difference in high and low pressure zones affect the weather around us? How are cyclones formed? The correct and most clear answers will get marked as the brainliest

Answer:
1. A region on the earth that is dominated by either high pressure cells or low pressure cells is called a pressure belt.
2. effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. On the earth, the effect tends to deflect moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern forming cyclones
3.High-pressure areas usually are areas of fair, settled weather. Low-pressure areas are places where the atmosphere is relatively thin. Winds blow inward toward these areas. This causes air to rise, producing clouds and condensation.
4.When warm, moist air over the ocean rises upward from near the surface, a cyclone is formed.
