Question

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Consider the following statements regarding Isotherms:
1. In the Northern hemisphere, deviations in Isotherm are more pronounced during January to March.
2. The effects of land mass and the ocean currents are well pronounced on Isotherm.


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 C Both 1 and 2

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> In general the effect of the latitude on temperature is well pronounced on the map, as the isotherms are generally parallel to the latitude. The deviation from this general trend is more pronounced in January than in July, especially in the northern hemisphere. In the northern hemisphere the land surface area is much larger than in the southern hemisphere. Hence, the effects of land mass and the ocean currents are well pronounced.
