The true statement about monsoons is that weak monsoon season can lead to drought and starvation.
<h3>What is a Monsoons?</h3>
This is a seasonal reversing wind that is known for corresponding changes in precipitation because of seasonal changes in atmospheric circulation and precipitation.
Hence, the true statement about monsoons is that weak monsoon season can lead to drought and starvation.
Therefore, the Option C is correct.
Missing options "A) Monsoons can cause devastating landslides and floods. B) Heavy monsoons increase agricultural output. C) A weak monsoon season can lead to drought and starvation. D) All of the above

Answer:
a. granite, andesite, basalt
Explanation:
There are three basic different types of magma: rhyolithic, andesitic, and basaltic. These three types of magma have different properties which differs them from one another, and which cause different types of eruptions. The rhyolithic (granite) magma has very high viscosity. This magma is the thickest, managing to trap gases in it, and because of it it causes highly explosive eruptions. The andesitic magma is moderate in viscosity, and it has explosive eruptions, but also has lava flows that are relatively slow, so it is very unpredictable what kind of an eruption will the volcano have. The basaltic magma is the least viscous. This means that the eruptions of these volcanoes are not explosive, but instead they produce thin lava flows that cover the surrounding area.
A. Plants and animals do not interact with each other.
Plants and animals HAVE to interact with each other in an ecosystem. Some animals may need to eat certain plants to stay alive. Plants also help provide c02 for the atmosphere.
The Earth is known to have five prevailing wind zones. They are:
- Polar easterlies is known to flow from polar high-pressure belt in the direction of the temperate low-pressure belts and it is said to blow from the east.
- Westerlies moves from from the west toward the east.
- Horse latitudes, found in the north and south and moves or flow toward the prevailing westerlies or equator.
- Trade winds flows mainly from east to west that is north and south of the equator.
- The doldrums starts at low pressure or weak pressure gradients, and moves in the direction of the trade wind of North and south.
Some of the examples of ocean Currents in the world are:
- North Equatorial Current is known to be a westward wind-driven current
- Kuroshio Current is known as north-flowing and also a warm ocean current .
- North Pacific Current is known to flow from west-to-east .
- Alaskan Current has its current flowing counterclockwise.
- Counter Equatorial Current is known as an eastward flowing and also a wind-driven current
- South Equatorial Current is known to flow from east-to-west. etc.
<h3>What is the link between wind and ocean currents?</h3>
The winds is known to be a weather condition that carries surface water with them which therefore forms currents.
Note that as these currents are said to flow westward, the Coriolis effect which is a force that emanates from the rotation of the Earth is said to lower their intensity which can make the currents to bend to the right, facing the north.
