Solution

The correct option is B Slanted and less heat
The torrid zone receives direct sun rays and thus is much warmer than the other two zones. The temperate zone, on the other hand, is moderate in nature wherein the temperature is neither too high nor too low. Finally, the frigid zones receive slanted sun rays that provide very less heat.
