Answer »Answer: (d)
They are located in the rain shadow zone of the world due to the movement of the trade winds. They are also under the influence of the subtropical high-pressure belts of the world.
This belt creates anti-cyclonic conditions and hence also rainfall. The cold current along the coast is responsible for the rainfall over the ocean.
It is because, when the moisture-laden wind comes in contact with the cold current, they shed their moisture over the ocean due to low temperature.
Hence, no rainfall over the coast of the continent.
Hence, the above statements are correct.
