Which question related to India's size would be considered more analytical than purely factual?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: How longitudinal extent affects local time and standard time

The governing distinction is between recall and analysis. A factual question asks for a direct datum, such as area, world rank or coastline length. An analytical question asks the learner to connect a geographical factor with an effect or process. Option A requires reasoning about longitude: Earth rotates 360 degrees in about 24 hours, so local time changes by roughly four minutes per degree of longitude. India’s broad longitudinal extent creates differences in local time, while a standard meridian provides one official national time. The other options mainly require recalling a single figure or ranking, so they are less analytical.
