Answer 1

lake effect

the urban heat island effect

Step-by-step explanation:

In syracuse, an urban area that is mostly flat terrain, tha means that there is no mountains around it, so the rains shadow effect wouldn´t be possible because it happens when there´s a mountain near that area, so not having mountains eliminates the effect, and the tropical breezes aren´t possible because syracuse is far away from the tropics. The only ones would be the lake effect and the urban heat island effect.

Answer 2

If you are allowed to have more than one answer, then I'd pick lake effect snow, as well as the urban heat island effect.
B is correct given that the city is near Lake Ontario, and C is correct because it is a big city, and it may be warmer than the rest of the island. A is incorrect because there are no mountains nearby, and D is incorrect because Syracuse is very far from any tropical regions.
