•describe two characteristics of thunderstorms that lead to hail formation.•

One characteristic is that the water droplets' have a temperature that is below freezing.

A second characteristic is that there is a downdraft and an updraft (those are wind currents), in a cloud, that is strong enough to trap the ice.

The ice will grow larger and larger as it combines with other freezing droplets until it becomes heavy. When it gets too heavy, the ice (hail) falls.

starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates.

starchy vegetables contain more carbohydrates than non-starchy vegetables.

explanation:

there are two primary categories of carbohydrates, essentially differentiated on the basis of their carbohydrate content (which is in the form of starch - a complex carbohydrate):

those vegetables which contain little amounts of starch are termed as non-starchy vegetables, and some examples include: artichokes, broccoli and bean sprouts.

vegetables high in their starch content are distinguished as starchy vegetables, and some examples include: potatoes, chickpeas and corn.
