Explanation:

Question 1

A monsoon is a seasonal wind that brings heavy rainfall. An artifact is a man - made object, climate is the long - term weather pattern of an area, and dynasty is a sequence of rulers from the same family. So the correct answer is related to the definition of monsoon.

The Atlas Mountains are in North Africa, the Apennines are in Italy, the Eastern Ghats are in India but do not act as a major protective barrier against invaders from the north. The Himalayan Mountains are in the north of the Indian subcontinent and protected the ancient people from northern invaders.

The Indian subcontinent, when looked at geographically, has a shape that is approximately triangular. It is not square, pentagon, or rectangle - shaped.

Answer:

monsoon
