Question

converging trade winds produce a calm region called what?
○ doldrums
○ westerlies
○ horse latitudes
○ trade winds

Explanation:

The doldrums are a calm, low-pressure region near the equator where the northern and southern trade winds converge, leading to little to no wind flow. Westerlies are winds in the mid-latitudes, horse latitudes are calm regions from descending air in subtropics, and trade winds are the converging winds themselves, not the calm region they create.

Answer:

A. doldrums
