Which example best shows the relation between altitude and temperature?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A hill station being cooler than a nearby plain

The direct answer is D: a hill station being cooler than a nearby plain best shows the relation between altitude and temperature. In the lower atmosphere, temperature generally decreases as altitude increases. Thus, when a place is higher above sea level, its air is usually cooler, although actual temperature can also be affected by season, sunlight, winds, and local conditions. Option A concerns the moderating influence of the sea on temperature range, not altitude. Option B describes low rainfall in a desert, which concerns aridity. Option C concerns population distribution and does not demonstrate temperature change with height. Option D is correct because the nearby hill location is higher and is therefore generally cooler than the plain. Exam cue: higher land usually means lower temperature.
