Question

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Consider the following statements regarding Isotherms:

1. Sudden bends at ocean – continent boundaries

2. Wide spacing between isotherms indicate rapid change in temperatures.


Which is/are above True?

• A. 1 only
• B. 2 only
• C. Both 1 and 2
• D. Neither 1 nor 2

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 only

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Due to differential heating of land and water, temperatures above the oceans and landmasses vary even on the same latitude. Wide spacing between isotherms indicate small or slow change in temperatures (low thermal gradient).
