Question

The lowest temperature of any landmass of the universe was recorded in
A) North America (1949)
B) Mt. Everest, Himalayas (1954)
C) Antarctica (1982)
D) Siberia (1947)

Answer 1

The regions having coldest land are northern America, Mt.everest , Antarctica, Siberia but one has the coldest weather in the following years given, it was recorded as the lowest temperature in the landmass of the universe.

Complete answer:

Serbia is found to have the permanently coldest weather of about -83.92 F With frozen rivers .
but in 1982 the coldest weather/the lowest temperature of any landmass of the universe was recorded in Antarctica with -128.6 F (-89.2 °C) at Vostok station.
The average temperature in the southern pole is usually -49° C but in 1982 the temperature gradually decreased to -89.2°C .
The temperature in Antarctica is low because it does not get direct sunlight which decreases the temperature of the region.
The warmest temperature in Antarctica was -12.3°C in December 2011 which is still cold and below freezing point .
t does not have the indigenous people or population ,people do not live eternally because of its cold conditions.
In North America 1949 the temperature was not low as compared to Antarctica. It was not in negative
But low.
Mount Everest, Himalayas shows different temperatures in different heights, foothills have a different temperature which is higher than the temperature at top.
The coldest temperature that was found on Mount Everest was -41°C in 2003 February .

Hence the correct answer is option ‘C’.

Note: All the given names have cold temperatures but the correct option Antarctica was selected because at that year (i.e in 1982 ) it was having the lowest temperature .-89.2 ° C is unbearable conditions for living habitats hence the population is also less which is in thousands.Antarctica is mostly used for research purposes.Antarctica does not have any government and is governed by the treaty system.
