Which outcome occurs when a mid-latitude cyclone intensifies, disrupting normal Hadley cell circulation?

A)Latitudinal heat transport decreases drastically
B)Global average precipitaion shows little change
C)Equatorial trade winds are intensified rapidly
D)The Intertropical Convergence Zone dissipates slowly

💡 Explanation

Latitudinal heat transport decreases drastically because the enhanced cyclone mixes air masses less efficiently than the Hadley cell it disrupts, reducing the direct transfer of heat. Therefore, heat transport is reduced, rather than unchanged, because alternative cell-related patterns are less influential.
