Solution

The correct option is C Planetary winds
Planetary winds are more or less permanent in nature, meaning they blow throughout the year. They seldom change their direction. Hence, depending on the direction of their origin, they have different names. For example the winds that originate from the East in the polar region are called the polar easterlies.
