    Question

    Below are two statements, one is a statement (A) and the

    other is a reason (R). Choose the correct answer from the options given below: Statement (A): India has a tropical climate due to its position in the northern part of the world. Reason (R): India has more heat on the eastern side of the country than on the western side. Choose the correct answer from the codes below:
    A Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C A is correct, but R is false. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D A is false, but R is correct. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    • Statement (A) is true because India's tropical climate is influenced by its location in the northern hemisphere, near the equator. • Statement (R) is false because while India’s eastern side experiences heavy rainfall and humidity due to the monsoon, it does not necessarily have more heat than the western side. In fact, the western side (e.g., Rajasthan) can be hotter due to desert influence.
