    a. the eyewall of a hurricane has a large pressure gradient. c. wind always moves from a region of lower air pressure to a region of higher air pressure. d. air pressure always increases with altitude above the surface of earth.

    Explanation:

    The eye of the storm is often associate with the calmness and is found to have a low-pressure region and has a lower gradient of the pressure system. As the eyes have about pressure 15 times lower than that of the outside storm. And as it has been observed that in the northern hemisphere the winds often move from the region of the high pressure to the regions of the lower pressure and this pressure increase to the surface of the sea levels and it decreases with the increase in latitude.
