Global pressure belts and latitude: The latitudinal differences in atmospheric pressure delineate several major pressure zones. These pressure zones most closely correspond with which broad Earth patterns? Choose the option that best matches the correspondence.

Given data

• Latitudinal pressure differences create distinct pressure belts (equatorial low, subtropical high, subpolar low, polar high).

Concept/Approach
These pressure belts drive planetary wind systems and moisture transport, which in turn set up broad climatic zones (tropical, subtropical deserts, temperate, polar). They do not correspond to where oceans/land lie per se, nor specifically to cyclonic depressions (which are transient, synoptic-scale systems).

Step-by-step reasoning
• Pressure belts → prevailing winds and circulation cells.• Circulation → temperature/precipitation patterns.• Outcome → climate zones by latitude.

Final Answer
Zones of climate
