Dry condition on a leeward slope can be the result of which combined controls?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Relief and wind direction

Direct answer: Option C, relief and wind direction. A mountain forces moist air to rise on the windward side. Rising air cools, condenses and may produce rain. After crossing the mountain, the air descends on the leeward side, becomes warmer and drier, and that area may receive much less rain. This dry region is called a rain-shadow area. Option C is correct because both the shape or height of the land and the direction of moving air are needed to explain the effect. Option A is wrong because school timing has no climatic control. Option B is wrong because currency is an economic matter, not a physical cause of a rain shadow. Option D is wrong because language and food do not control relief rainfall. Memory cue: windward is wetter; leeward is drier.
