(D) Hot and dry

Answer 1

Hint: We all know that the generally tropical climate has warm temperatures. Depending on the type of tropical climate, humidity is variable with the Equatorial climate. Which has large quantities of precipitation all year and Tropical Wet and Dry and Tropical Monsoon climates have seasonal shifts even in rain patterns.

Complete answer:
(A) Most of the tropical climates are known for their high temperatures and a high amount of rain throughout the year. Due to the high temperature, tropical regions are hot and due to heavy rainfall, tropical regions are humid.
(B) Moderate temperature and heavy rainfall characteristics describe the tropical regions. Generally tropical regions have high temperatures and heavy rainfalls according to seasonal changes. Since the above option is given so accurately, this option is wrong.
(C) Generally cold and humid conditions are present in hilly places and in central regions of the continent since there are only some hilly places in tropical regions, so this option is wrong.
(D) Hot and dry conditions are present in desert areas and these places do not present in all over tropical regions. So this option is wrong.

The correct answer is (A) hot and humid.

Note: In hot, humid weather the sweating is high, and to avoid dehydration one should have high amounts of electrolytes and water. Most of the animals are adapted in such a way that they can tolerate high temperatures. Some animals can survive when they sweat which is covered all over the body and after that the sweat evaporates and this gives a cooling effect to its body.
