Answer:
C. Horse Latitudes
Explanation:
The "horse latitude" is an area located on the north and south of the tropics–<u>30 degrees north of the equator </u>and <u>30 degrees south of the equator</u>. The wind in this area separates into different directions; thus resulting to a narrow band of windless area or<em> calm wind. </em>It is also characterized by sunny, clear skies and little to no precipitation.

A steep pressure gradient produces strong winds. When we say "steep<span> horizontal </span>pressure gradient", we simply mean<span> that it's strong. </span>
<span>A larger
number indicates higher or </span>steeper<span> degree of "tilt". Often </span>slope<span> is calculated as a ratio of "rise" to
"run", or as a fraction ("rise over run") in which run is
the horizontal distance and rise is the vertical distance.</span>
