Three of the following are associated with heavy rainfall. Which is the odd one out?

  • A.a mid-latitude frontal zone
  • B.the subtropical high pressure belt
  • C.the intertropical convergence zone
  • D.the windward slope of a mountain range

Answer: B

The subtropical high is a region of subsidence and is where the great deserts lie. The other three are all regions of ascent and therefore of rainfall. Descent is what marks the desert belt. Ascent and rainfall go together everywhere.
