In which condition can heat be felt despite temperature decrease with altitude?

Correct answer: If the place is at very low altitude and in tropical latitude

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Altitude is only one climatic control. Temperature generally decreases as altitude increases, but a place may still feel warm if it is at low altitude and lies in a tropical latitude, where sunlight is generally more direct. Climate results from the combined effect of latitude, altitude, distance from the sea, winds, relief and other factors. Option A is correct because low altitude does not strongly cool the place and tropical latitude can provide strong heating. Option B is wrong because a Himalayan peak is extremely high and usually cold. Option C is wrong because polar regions receive low-angle sunlight and are cold; high altitude would add cooling. Option D is wrong because a very high rain-shadow area can be dry but high elevation usually lowers temperature, so it does not best fit the question. Exam cue: compare all controls, not altitude alone.
