Which statement related to India's size and extent shows an incorrect cause-effect relation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Increase in area directly changes local time

The governing concept is distinguishing geographical variables and their effects. Local time is determined by longitude because Earth rotates through 360 degrees in about 24 hours, producing a difference of roughly four minutes for each degree of longitude. Merely increasing a country's area does not automatically change local time; a larger area may include more longitudes, but time zones or a standard time are administrative choices based on longitude. Therefore, option A states the incorrect cause-effect relation. Option B is correct, option C reflects the climatic influence of latitude, and option D correctly connects coastline with maritime access. The wording “directly” makes A especially clear.
