Q111

Arrange the following zones in ascending order in terms of their latitudinal extent on the Earth surface :

  1. Equatorial zone

  2. Midlatitude zone

  3. Subarctic zone

  4. Tropical zone

Select the answer using the code given below :

  1. (a) 1 – 3 – 2 – 4
  2. (b) 1 – 3 – 4 – 2
  3. (c) 1 – 4 – 2 – 3Correct answer
  4. (d) 3 – 1 – 2 – 4

Solution.

Answer: (c) 1 – 4 – 2 – 3

  1. Going away from the equator, the zones come in this order: equatorial, tropical, midlatitude, subarctic.
  2. In ascending order of latitude that is 1, 4, 2, 3.

Trap: "Latitudinal extent" could also mean the width of each zone; the question means their position by latitude.
