Solution
The correct option is C Eastern and Western Ghats
The western, southern and the north-western parts of Tamil Nadu are hilly and rich in vegetation.
Tamil Nadu is the only state in India which has both the Western Ghat and the Eastern Ghat mountain ranges which both meet at the Nilgiri hills.
The Western Ghats dominate the entire western border with Kerala, effectively blocking much of the rain bearing clouds of the South West Monsoon from entering the state.
The eastern parts are fertile coastal plains. The northern parts are a mix of hills and plains. The central and the south-central regions are arid plains.
Hence option C is the correct answer.
