Compared to southern mexico, northern mexico

a. has a drier climate with less yearly rainfall.
b. has fewer temperature changes during the year.
c. suffers from more hurricanes during the summer and fall.
d. has a higher population.

Option (A)

Explanation:

The climate of northern Mexico is different from that of southern Mexico. The line of tropic of Cancer separates the northern and southern Mexico. Due to this, there occurs climate variation, where the northern side experiences a temperate type of climate and the southern side experiences a tropical type of climate.

The temperature in the southern side is relatively high, due to the latitudinal location and because of its proximity to the ocean. On the other hand, the temperature in the northern side is fairly less, as the area lies above the tropic, and there occurs a lesser amount of annual rainfall, and the climate remains dry.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
