How can relief affect rainfall distribution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Mountains can lift air and cause rainfall

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Relief means the shape and height of the land, including mountains, hills and slopes. Moist air forced up a mountain cools as it rises; condensation can then produce rain on the windward side. The descending air on the leeward side is often drier, creating a rain-shadow area. Therefore mountains can change where rainfall is distributed. Option B is wrong because plains do not always stop rain and may receive substantial rainfall. Option C is wrong because relief directly affects wind movement and uplift. Option D is wrong because relief is a physical landform factor, not a language factor. The exact chain is mountain barrier, rising air, cooling, condensation and rainfall. Memory cue: windward side is wetter; leeward side is often drier.
