Solution

The correct option is A 3000m, 8000m

The climate of the Ladakh desert is enormously cold and dry due to its high elevation which varies from about 3,000 m in Kargil to more than 8,000 m in the Karakoram. The air at this altitude is so slender that the high temperature of the sun can be felt strongly.
