Assertion (A): Baroclinic eddies increase the meridional temperature gradient.
Reason (R): They transport heat poleward across the mid-latitude belt.
Select the correct answer from the options below.
Answer: C
The reason is correct and is exactly why the assertion fails: poleward heat transport reduces rather than increases the gradient that created the eddies. The resulting self-regulation keeps the atmosphere close to marginal baroclinic stability. This pattern of a true reason establishing a false assertion recurs throughout the topic and rewards reading both statements carefully.
