Solution

The correct option is C 3
On the basis of origin, rainfall may be classified into three main types, convectional, orographic, and cyclonic. In orographic rainfall, windward sides of the mountain receive heavy rainfall, the leeward sides do not receive rainfall due to the descending dry air.
