The correct option is C Only 1&2
Anticyclone: This is characterized by high pressure centre in which wind blows in clockwise manner in northern hemisphere and anticlockwise in the southern hemisphere. The anti- cyclones develop in sub-tropical and temperate regions. Absent in equatorial region. They are generally known as weather less phenomenon. Other characteristics of anticyclones are:
1. Air pressure decreases outward from the Centre.
2. They are much larger in size as compared to cyclones.
3. Move very slowly with average velocity of 30-40 km/hr.
4. These are characterized by divergence of winds. While cyclones are result of convergence of winds
Indicative of clear weather and decrease in wind velocity in area of their arrival.
