Q.1 (B) (2) Ideal location for fishing.
A. rugged coast, shallow seas, hot climate, growth of plankton.
B. shallow seas, confluence of warm and cold ocean currents, growth of planktons, cold climate
C. continental shelf, growth of planktons, good fishing skills, cold climate
D. continental shelf, rugged coasts, growth of planktons, cold climate.
Best answer
Answer: B. shallow seas, confluence of warm and cold ocean currents, growth of planktons, cold climate
Answer: (B) shallow seas, confluence of warm and cold ocean currents, growth of planktons, cold climate
The major fishing grounds of the world (North-West Pacific, North-East Atlantic, Grand Banks) lie in shallow seas over the continental shelf where warm and cold currents meet. Mixing of waters favours plankton, the food of fish, and the cold climate helps preserve the catch. All four factors in (B) are physical conditions favouring fish; option (C) includes a human skill and (A) a hot climate.
