Read the paragraph under the title ‘Effects of Planetary Winds’ on page 43 and comment on it.

Planetary winds are very crucial to maintaining the temperature around the world.

a. They transport heat and moisture and hence does not let any part of the world get too cold or too hot.

b. These winds are not distributed uniformly hence there is variation in temperature.

c. Blow from high to low pressure, over the earth surface & oceans throughout the year & in a particular direction

d. Therefore some parts are cooler and some are hot.
