Identify the correct statement/s from the following : Assertion (A) : The isotherm lines remain almost parallel to one another and parallel to latitudes on oceanic surfaces. Reason (R) : Temperatures at maritime locations are free from effect of elevation.
(a)सागरी क्षेत्रात समतापरेषा एकमेकीस व अक्षवृत्तास जवळजवळ समांतर जातात.
(b)सागरी स्थानांचे तापमान उंचीच्या परिणामापासून मुक्त असते.
Isotherms run parallel to latitudes on oceans because oceanic temperature distribution is relatively uniform and free from extreme topographical elevation effects.

For the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) below, choose the correct alternative. Assertion (A) : Eskimos reside in igloos. Reason (R) : No other material except snow is available.
Eskimos do live in igloos (Assertion is true), but the reason is not lack of other materials alone; igloos are efficient, quick shelters built from packed snow blocks suited to the Arctic environment.
