What can be the most likely effect of a weak monsoon?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drought and water shortage

The governing concept is the dependence of seasonal water supply on monsoon rainfall. A weak monsoon generally brings less or poorly distributed rain than expected. If the deficiency is significant, reservoirs, rivers, groundwater recharge and soil moisture may not receive enough water. This can create water scarcity, reduce crop yields and increase the possibility of drought, especially in rain-fed agricultural areas. Therefore option A is the most likely effect. A weak monsoon cannot freeze the sea in the usual climatic conditions of India; it cannot change latitude, which is a geographic coordinate, and it cannot make mountains grow, since mountain building is a long-term geological process. The exact severity depends on duration, location and water storage, but drought and shortage are the relevant likely outcomes.
