Which latitude line passes through the middle of India influencing the climate of the country?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Tropic of Cancer.

  • The middle of India is crossed by the Tropic of Cancer, which is situated at roughly 23.5 degrees north latitude.
  • This latitude line, which denotes the northern edge of the tropical area, has a major impact on the nation's climate.
  • The monsoon season, which is a crucial component of India's climate and weather patterns, and other significant seasonal variations in climate are caused by the position of the Tropic of Cancer.
