(a) River
(b) Sea
(c) Mountain
(d) All of these

Answer 1

Answer:

c) Mountain

Explanation:

Wind blows from the Indian ocean towards the land. They are moisture laden. When this wind is hindered by the high mountain barriers of the north they ascend along their slopes, get condensed and cause rainfall all over the country.

Answer 2

Moisture-laden winds strike the mountains to cause rainfall. (Option C)

• Moisture-weighted down winds are known as North-East alternate winds.
• During the iciness monsoon, the North-East alternate winds are moisture-weighted down as they blow from land to sea.
• They are known as land-bearing winds as those winds are planetary.
• This is due to the fact the northeast trades wind in the course of the iciness season there can be no rainfall.
