Which is the correct example of the combined effect of local altitude and latitude?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A high mountain place in tropical region can be cool

Direct answer: A, a high mountain place in a tropical region can be cool. Latitude affects the general solar heating received by a place, while altitude usually lowers temperature as height increases. Therefore a place near the tropics may still feel cool if it lies high in the mountains. This is the combined effect: tropical latitude tends to be warm, but high elevation moderates or reverses that expectation locally. B is wrong because altitude generally lowers, not always raises, temperature. C is wrong because latitude is an important temperature control. D is wrong because the sea does not remove or cancel physical altitude. Other factors may also act, but A is the correct example. Memory cue: latitude sets the broad pattern; altitude modifies local temperature.
