Which of the following is the primary reason for the high rainfall in the Amazon Basin?
A. ITCZ and convection
B. Frontal systems
C. Orographic lifting
D. Monsoon winds
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
The Amazon Basin receives high rainfall primarily due to its location near the equator, where the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and intense convection cause heavy, frequent precipitation.
Explanation:
October Heat is caused by clear skies (intense solar radiation) and high humidity (from residual monsoon moisture) creating oppressive heat.
Explanation:
Cyclones in the Bay of Bengal are most frequent during the post-monsoon period (October-November) and also during the pre-monsoon period (April-May).
