Answer 1

The correct option is B It stops the cold blizzard winds.

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The Himalayas protect us from the cold blizzard winds that are generated by the continental winter high pressure system of north-eastern and central Asia. If it wasn't for the Himalayas, we would be experiencing really harsh winters and much of India would have remained dry.
