Answer:

C. Direction it travels

Explanation:

The only difference between a hurricane and a typhoon is the location where the storm occurs.

If it's above the North Atlantic, central North Pacific or eastern North Pacific oceans (Florida, Caribbean Islands, Texas, Hawaii, etc.), we call it a hurricane. If it hovers over the Northwest Pacific Ocean (usually East or Southeast Asia), we call it a typhoon.
