    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    Temperate lows are Sub-polar low pressure belts. The Coriolis effect from earth's rotation sets the resulting winds into Hadley cells, which produces low pressure at the equator and sub polar areas, high pressure at mid latitudes, and low sub-polar pressures, as well as trade winds, doldrums, and jet streams.
