Answer #1

At the center of the Hurricane remains the eye of the Hurricane. This area is very calm and surrounding this region remains the eyewall. Convective zone is the part just outward of the eyewall. Whereas squall line is the frontal portion of the cold front that surrounds the hurricane from outside. This is the limit of the hurricane and remains in between the hurricane and the outer undisturbed boundary layer. So, moving from outside of the hurricane(towards the center of the hurricane) we encounter the squall line first and then the convective zone.
