Solution
The correct option is C Polar region
Increases in the level of greenhouse gases has led to considerable
heating of earth leading to global warming. During the past century, the
temperature of earth has increased by 0.6, most of it during the
last three decades. Rise in temperature is slight in tropics, moderate
in middle latitudes and maximum in polar regions. It will led to melting
of polar ice caps as well as of other places like the Himalayan snow
caps.
