← GeographyWhich outcome occurs from low-pressure cell formation influenced by the Coriolis effect?
A)Tropical cyclone rotation establishment✓
B)Reduced coastal upwelling intensity
C)Polar ice cap accumulation increases
D)Stratospheric ozone layer depletion slows
💡 Explanation
Tropical cyclones rotate because the Coriolis effect deflects winds moving towards the low-pressure center. This induces initial cyclonic rotation (mechanism), critical for cyclone formation; therefore, the rotation occurs, rather than reduced upwelling or changing polar ice accumulation, affecting different systems and pressures.
