Starting with the phrase 'high sea temperatures' use your knowledge and the diagram to explain the formation of a cyclone.
High sea temperature causes the air above to be heated (convection current wise) and the particles to rise up gaining energy leading to more chemicals to rise, this is called latent heat energy. When all the particles rise up simultaneously this creates a vortex that forms the twisting shape of the cyclone, this is the release of the latent energy built up. The Coriolis Effect may also be a cause of the twisting fashion of the cyclone.
