Question
Which factor out of the following does not affect the region along the coast?
Options
Precipitation
Temperature
Land breezes
Salinity
Solution
Salinity
Explanation:
Salinity doesn’t affect the region along the coast as much as the other factors. Along the coast, precipitation is higher due to more availability of water. Temperature along the coast is not extreme, as the sea acts as a moderating factor. Land breezes are breezes blowing towards the sea from the land.
