Answer: What is most likely the cause of the increasing numbers of severe weather events is A. the slowing of the thermohaline circulation.
Explanation: Thermohaline circulation is hard to explain, but it is important in giving heat to the polar regions. The six main components that determine the weather are temperature, atmospheric pressure, cloud formation, wind, humidity, and rain. A small change in any of these components can result in an entirely new weather pattern. As mentioned in the question, slowing the thermohaline circulation would very likely increase the number of severe weather events. What I just said, I took the test, and the answer is A.
