Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Mountains cause the orographic effect, therefore mountain barriers cause the same thing. Orographic effect is caused when air masses that are low down suddenly get forced upwards to a high elevation. This causes a lot of rain on the side of the mountain facing the wind.

5 Why did Czar Alexander II free the serfs?
Ivahew [28]

No freedom of religion, or elections was yet to be had in Russia.
