Answer:
Option (2)
Explanation:
Climate refers to the long-term changes that occur in the weather pattern of any particular area. This includes changes in the atmospheric pressure and temperature, amount and type of precipitation, moisture content and other weather elements.
Altitude, wind belts and ocean currents are also some of the factors that control the climatic condition of an area. High altitude areas are generally colder than the low altitude areas as temperature decreases with the increasing height.
Agriculture is not a factor that controls the climate because agriculture is a process by which the crops are grown along with the soil, and livestock animals, in order to produce food on which the living organisms are dependent on.
Thus, agriculture is not a controlling factor.
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
