Q.

Which of the following winds is called anti-trade wind? (1)

A. Chinook
B. Cyclone
C. Typhoon
D. Westerlies
Answer» A. Chinook
Explanation: Westerlies are rather stormy and variable though the main direction remains from west to east. But as their general direction is from the west, they are called the "Westerlies". They are also known as "AntiTrade Winds", because their movement is in the opposite direction from that of the trade wind.
