How does the Himalaya help control the climate of the Indian subcontinent?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: By blocking cold Central Asian winds

The correct answer is by blocking cold Central Asian winds. The Himalaya forms a very high mountain barrier along the northern edge of the Indian subcontinent. In winter, it prevents extremely cold continental air from Central Asia from freely entering the Indian plains, helping keep northern India warmer than it would otherwise be. The range also affects the southwest monsoon by forcing moisture-bearing winds to rise and by preventing much of the moisture from escaping northward. It does not dry all rivers, move the sea or directly form black soil. Therefore option A states the relevant climatic function.
