India's location on the map is linked with which important line passing through its middle part?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Tropic of Cancer

Correct answer: A, the Tropic of Cancer. A latitude is an imaginary east–west line used to locate places north or south of the Equator. The Tropic of Cancer lies at about 23°30′ north latitude and passes through the middle part of India. It divides India into a tropical region to the south and a subtropical region to the north, although climate is also affected by many other factors. The Equator is at 0° latitude and does not pass through India. The Tropic of Capricorn lies at about 23°30′ south latitude, so it is in the Southern Hemisphere. The Prime Meridian is 0° longitude and passes through Greenwich in the United Kingdom, not through the middle of India. Thus, option A is correct. Option B is wrong because India lies north of the Equator. Option C is wrong because it is a southern latitude. Option D is wrong because it is a longitude line in another region. Memory cue: 23°30′ N across India means the Tropic of Cancer.
