Solution(By Examveda Team)

The tropical cyclone is known as Typhoon.
A tropical cyclone is a generic term used by meteorologists to describe a rotating, organized system of clouds and thunderstorms that originates over tropical or subtropical waters and has closed low-level circulation. Hurricanes and typhoons are the same weather phenomenon known as tropical cyclones.
A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops between 180° and 100°E in the Northern Hemisphere. This region is referred to as the Northwestern Pacific Basin, accounting for almost one-third of the world's annual tropical cyclones. It is referred to as a mature tropical cyclone in the northeast Pacific and northern Atlantic.
