Why does India's latitudinal extent affect north south climatic variation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because latitude affects the angle of sun rays and temperature

Latitude controls the angle at which solar radiation reaches Earth and therefore influences the amount of heating received by a place. In general, locations nearer the equator receive more direct rays, whereas higher latitudes receive more oblique rays spread over a larger surface area. India extends across a substantial range of latitudes, so its northern and southern parts do not receive solar energy in exactly the same way throughout the year. This contributes to north-south differences in temperature, seasons, and climate, although altitude, relief, distance from the sea, and monsoon circulation also matter. Option B gives the correct governing reason; the other choices are unrelated.
