                                                                             and temperature?
                      1.  Why do hill stations remain cooler than                   (a)  Temperature increases with
                         nearby plains?                                                latitude.

                                (a)  More rainfall.                                 (b)  Temperature remains constant.

                                (b)  Higher humidity.                               (c)  Temperature decreases as latitude
                                                                                       increases.
                                (c)  Lower atmospheric pressure and                 (d)  Temperature varies randomly.
                                   air density at higher altitude.        5.  What pattern differentiates weather and
                                (d)  Greater vegetation.
                                                                             climate?
                      2.  Which logical conclusion explains why                     (a)  Weather is long-term and climate
                         coastal areas have moderate climates?                         is short-term.
                                                                                    (b)  Both are identical.
                                (a)  Land absorbs heat slowly.
                                                                                    (c)  Weather is short-term; climate is
                                (b)  Sea moderates temperature by
                                                                                       long-term pattern.
                                   heating and cooling slowly.                      (d)  Climate changes daily.
                                (c)  Coastal regions receive no
                                   sunlight.                              6.  What pattern can be observed in the picture
                                (d)  Winds stop near oceans.                 showing a cyclone system?
                                                                          0°E      60°E     70°E     80°E     90°E
                      3.  Why do regions on the leeward side of the                 wind

                         Western Ghats receive less rainfall?                                          circulation
                                (a)  Higher altitude.

                                (b)  Moist winds lose moisture on
                                   windward side due to barrier
                                   effect.
                                (c)  Less sunlight.

                                (d)  Higher temperature.                          0   500  1,000 km
