Answer:
B Winds blow in a straight line parallel to contour lines on a weather map
Explanation:
Geostrophic Wind -
It is the pattern of the wind , when the flow of wind is exactly parallel to the contour lines of the weather map .
It is a theoretical wind which results from the balance between the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis force .
Hence , the correct description for the Geostrophic Wind is option ( b ) .
