Answer 1

Winds blow from 30° latitude in both hemispheres almost to the equator as trade winds. Option C.

This phenomenon is called the Coriolis effect and is the reason why trade winds blow westward in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Trade winds are found about 30 degrees north and south of the equator. Trade winds can be defined as winds blowing north from the northeast toward the equator.

From the southeast hemisphere or southern hemisphere. Also known as the tropical easterly wind it is known for its consistent strength and direction. The driving force of atmospheric circulation is the energy of the sun, which heats the atmosphere to varying degrees at the equator. All this motion is driven by sunlight which is absorbed and re-radiated by the Earth's surface and rotation.
