    Durand line touches Pak administered Kashmir for some stretch. We still consider it be an Indian territory.

    Intensive subsistence would require the soil to be fertile and well irrigated.

    Taiga is located on high latitudes and is affected by solstice, but equator; not to that extent. Winter temperature in boreal forests can fall to -50 degree-Celsius while in summer it is around 15-18 degree-Celsius.

    There’s virtually no winter b/w 10 degree North-South latitudes; the equatorial region.

  18. Tree line is maximum altitude where tees can grow. Above that it is not conducive environment.

    Well I think while answering any question in UPSC, we have to assume India’s boundary to be the one which is in POK, no?

    what is the connect of livestock and arid climate..can the answer not be intensive subsistence?

  26. And it is about 2400 km

  27. Durand line was drawn after afghan war 1919

    Q1 dairy bhi toh hai….. But it is less prominent so ans should be livestock ? I marked dairy 🙁

  28. Ok got it Bhai…I marked India afgan only.
    Later on googled for other lines and parallels and thus got confused..

    When was Durand Line drawn ?
    I think it was by some Britisher.
    – b/w Undivided India and Afghanistan.

    As Afghanistan also borders India, some part of Durand Line will also be between India and Afghanistan.

    Of all the options given, You should tick the option which is the closest !!!

  33. And yes, about Durand Line.

    I marked India- Afgan, which is wrong but forum gave me full marks.

  34. The tree line is the edge of the habitat at which trees are capable of growing. It is found at high elevations and in frigid environments. Beyond the tree line, trees cannot tolerate the environmental conditions (usually cold temperatures or lack of moisture)

  35. Sandalwood- Alpine?????

    Exactly. While searching for “Border between India and Afghanistan” – I get Durand Line as answer, most images show Durand Line as the Pak-Af boundary.

    Sandalwood is absolutely wrong.
    Sandalwood in India is found in Karnataka Kerala and tamilnadu in tropical deciduous forest

  48. agar 10-15 ke bich mean monthly temperature hai us area ka toh yes..

  49. yes its tropical deciduous only

  50. Sandal woods are found in more than 1 region – like tropical moist deciduous and dry deciduous type.. was my logic while answering it 😀

  51. Not necessarily in western ghat but yes in southern region of India
