Option 3 : These blow constantly throughout the year in a particular direction. 

Permanent winds blow constantly throughout the year in a particular direction.

  • The movement of air from high pressure area to low pressure areas are called Winds.
  • Winds are classified into three types:
    • Permanent winds
    • Seasonal winds
    • Local winds
  • Permanent winds blow throughout the year in a particular direction.
  • The trade winds, the westerlies and the easterlies are examples of permanent winds.
  • Local winds blow during a particular period of the day in a small area.
  • Seasonal winds change their direction in different seasons.
  • Monsoon is an example of seasonal winds.

 Thus, we can say that permanent winds blow constantly throughout the year in a particular direction.
