Rain shadow and high altitude in Ladakh Plateau produce which geographical result?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cold and dry desert character

The governing concept is the combined effect of altitude and rain shadow. Ladakh lies at a high elevation north of the main Himalayan ranges. These ranges block much of the moisture-bearing monsoon air, so Ladakh receives very little precipitation. Its great height keeps temperatures low, while the limited moisture creates a dry environment. Therefore option C correctly describes Ladakh as a cold desert or cold, dry plateau. Marine humidity and coral reefs require warm, moist coastal seas, and the Ganga Delta is a low alluvial depositional region. None of those conditions exists in the high, rain-shadowed interior of Ladakh.
