Question

________ is referred to as “monsoon trough”, during the monsoon season.

• A. Intertropical convergence zone
• B. Intertemperate convergence zone
• C. Tropical convergence zone
• D. Temperate convergence zone

Answer 1

The correct option is A Intertropical convergence zone

Intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is generally located near the equator, almost parallel to it. It moves north or south of the equator with the apparent movement of the sun. As the Sun moves south or north of the equator, the ITCZ shifts south or north. The ITCZ is also referred to as “monsoon trough”, during the monsoon season.
