Consider the following Statements: The low-Pressure zone is a Zone of Convergence with a net inflow of air. The upper atmosphere refers to the Stratosphere. For every Zone of Convergence near-Earth Surface, there is a Zone of Divergence in the upper atmosphere. Which of the following statement(s) is/are true? Correct Answer 1 & 3 only

The correct answer is option 3) i.e. 1 & 3 only

  • The low-Pressure zone is a Zone of Convergence with a net inflow of air. Due to the inflow of air, air pilation takes place which then moves up creating a low-pressure zone. Thus, air convergence is the effect of Low Pressure. It is associated with Cyclonic Activities.
  • The upper atmosphere refers to the zone near the Tropopause. The upper atmosphere is where the most atmospheric activities are limited to. 
  • For every Zone of Convergence near-Earth Surface, there is a Zone of Divergence in the upper atmosphere and vice-versa.
  • Zone of Divergence is a zone having a net outflow of air. A high-Pressure zone is a zone of divergence.  It is associated with anti-Cyclonic Activities.
