Consider the following statements about the latitudinal rainfall pattern.
1. A maximum lies near the equator.
2. Minima lie near twenty to thirty degrees in each hemisphere.
3. Rainfall increases steadily from equator to pole.

  • A.1 and 2 only
  • B.3 only
  • C.1 only
  • D.All of them

Answer: A

The first two are correct and give the characteristic double-peaked pattern. The third is quite wrong, and the secondary maximum in mid-latitudes is followed by a decline towards the polar deserts. Two minima and two maxima make the pattern.
